What Euromed does

Euromed S.A. is a Spanish producer of standardized botanical extracts and natural active ingredients serving pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, functional food, cosmetic and pet care manufacturers worldwide. Founded in 1971 by German phytopharmaceutical company Madaus AG and now a subsidiary of Germany's Dermapharm Group (previously a Riverside Company portfolio company from 2015), Euromed operates from Mollet del Vallès (Barcelona, Spain) — its API-certified, GMP-certified headquarters housing corporate, R&D and manufacturing — with a complementary extraction facility in Molina de Segura (Murcia, Spain) acquired as part of Probelte Biotechnologies in 2017, a procurement and drying operation in Central Florida for saw palmetto, a distribution warehouse in Salt Lake City, a US subsidiary in Bridgeville, PA, and a Shanghai sales office for Greater China.

The product portfolio is organized into four lines: Mediterranean Fruit & Vegetable Extracts (Pomanox®, Mediteanox®, CuberUp®, Spisar®, perFix™) produced via the proprietary Pure-Hydro Process® water-extraction technology; Premium Branded Extracts (Prosterol®, Silactive®, Ethis-094®, Prunera®, ABAlife®, Pomalive®, Secret To Live®, Wellemon®, Cynamed®); Traditional Botanical Extracts at pharmacopeial grade; and Earth Harmony Organic Extracts™ certified to EU EEC834/2007 and US NOP standards. All products carry the PhytoProof® quality seal covering identity, potency and purity testing from herb to final extract. The technology backbone combines GMP/API manufacturing, ISO 9001/14001/45001/22000 certifications, FSSC 22000, NSF/ANSI 173, Halal, Kosher, and a portfolio of patented or patent-pending processes including exclusive licensing of BioTherapeutics Inc. abscisic acid (ABA) patents.

Euromed monetizes through B2B ingredient sales governed by negotiated supply agreements and purchase orders, reaching 350+ customers in 35 countries on five continents. The go-to-market is sales-led via direct regional teams and major industry trade shows (Vitafoods, SupplySide, Natural Products Expo West), supported by clinical publications, webinars and scientific content marketing. The vertically integrated model — from Florida saw palmetto harvest through Murcia and Barcelona extraction to global distribution — combined with 5,000+ tons of annual biomass processing and EcoVadis Platinum status (top 1% of 100,000+ companies) underpins a position as a long-tenured, science-credentialed specialty ingredients supplier within Dermapharm's pharmaceutical portfolio.
