BMclinical

What BMclinical does

BMclinical is a Netherlands-based clinical trial services firm founded in 2018 and headquartered in Lelystad, with a headcount of 11-50 employees. The company specialized in comparator sourcing — supplying reference pharmaceutical products used as benchmarks in clinical studies — for pharmaceutical and biotech sponsors conducting clinical trials. BMclinical operated within a tightly regulated environment requiring Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Distribution Practice (GDP) compliance.

In February 2026, BMclinical merged with Uniphar | Clinical, the clinical trial services division of Uniphar, to form a unified global platform for clinical trial supply. The combined entity integrates BMclinical's comparator sourcing expertise with Uniphar | Clinical's packaging, labeling, storage, and distribution capabilities, and operates GMP- and GDP-compliant facilities in Lelystad, Netherlands and Raleigh, North Carolina. The merged business serves pharmaceutical and biotech companies from early clinical development through commercialization, with distribution spanning Europe, North America, APAC, and MENA. The revenue model is professional services-based, delivered through an enterprise field sales motion targeting sponsor companies directly.

The company is now operating as a subsidiary within the Uniphar Group platform, with Michael Hendriks (founder/co-owner) carrying forward into the combined entity. No public pricing, customer logos, or revenue figures are disclosed in the available source material.
