  Customer support

With an experience of 49 years in the global market of off-patents APIs, Hovione has a deep understanding of the patent, time-to-market, bioequivalence and regulatory challenges linked to this business. Hovione supplies its Customers with technical support that will cover all chemistry, analytical and registration issues. On occasion, Hovione will also supply formulation information.

We assist our Customers throughout the development and registration stages by supplying impurities, technical documentation, analytical methods, validation, stability and regulatory support. The supply of impurity samples, improved HPLC methods, complete method validations, are standard practice at Hovione. Technical presentations, direct communication lines between Customer/Hovione technical peers and regular visits are part of Customer Service.
Customers are encouraged to call, fax and e-mail Hovione technical people. Naturally Hovione always welcomes customers to visit our facilities, allowing them to audit or simple view the manufacturing process in person. Our job is to find solutions for you.

An established network of agents and sales offices, presence at trade shows, frequent and regular travel all over the World assures a good market coverage. But coverage is not enough; an in-depth knowledge of local regulations and players is just as important. A track-record of exporting to the most regulated countries for over 40 years puts Hovione people on first name terms with many of the key players in every country.

Hovione's strategy has been defined in response to Customer's needs. We develop few products at a time, and as a result we have a short product list. We invest massively in research and development in a single product at one time, so that in the short term our Customers receive the best technical support and can get approvals fast with minimum effort. In the long term, Customers are assured a competitive supplier and a reliable source of bulk product.
Our expertise in chemical synthesis and in meeting regulatory requirements consistently helps our customers to reduce the time it takes to launch their new products.
