Substera Group
Pharma Chemicals established itself as a trusted specialist in the sourcing, analysis, repackaging and distribution of pharmaceutical APIs (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients) and excipients.
Founded in 2017, Pharma Chemicals has rapidly established itself as a trusted specialist in the sourcing, analysis, repackaging and distribution of pharmaceutical APIs (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients) and excipients. These constitute essential building blocks used by pharmacies and hospitals to compound personalized medicines.
Pharma Chemicals ensures wholesale distributors, pharmacies and hospitals have access to reliable, compliant and high-quality ingredients. Operating from its GMP-certified production facility in Wauthier-Braine, Belgium, the company combines an in-house laboratory and cleanroom with a rigorous quality control process, enabling fast go-to-market capabilities and strict compliance with the most demanding pharmaceutical standards. Raw materials are sourced directly from manufacturers through a global sourcing network, analysed and repackaged into standardized portions before being distributed to clients across Belgium and France.
This operational model has translated into strong market positions in both countries. In Belgium, Pharma Chemicals serves most of the country's pharmacies. In France, the company holds over 90% market penetration among large-scale compounders.
With Companions as an active partner, Substera Group targets accelerated pan-European growth through market expansion, strategic partnerships and complementary acquisitions. The aim is to become a leading reference in pharmaceutical API and excipient distribution across Europe.
