Pharmarôme: 50 years of expertise, 3 generations, one mission: flavouring serving welfare and therapeutic comfort
In 1976, Claude DEHAIS, a pioneer in what was then an emerging market, founded Pharmarôme with a simple yet revolutionary conviction: taste can transform the acceptability of a medicine.
Drawing on his expertise in the pharmaceutical sector, he partnered with our manufacturing partner to combine two areas of expertise around a shared objective. This marked the beginning of the Pharmarôme journey and of a French family-owned business.
GROWTH DRIVEN BY EXPERTISE AND TRUST
From the outset, Pharmarôme established itself as a quality expert and a trusted partner, supporting Procurement, R&D, Quality and Regulatory teams. This trusted relationship with laboratories quickly became a cornerstone of the business.
Our close relationships with clients now enable us to fully understand their challenges: international regulatory constraints, logistical complexities, sensory variability, flavour stability and unpleasant taste and bitterness masking issues.
Over the years, we have built a recognized expertise:
TAILORED TECHNICAL SUPPORT AT EVERY STAGE
formulation, flavour selection, optimisation, organoleptic testing, regulatory guidance and sourcing
IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF PHARMACEUTICAL REQUIREMENTS
going far beyond food standards: legal naming, regulatory documentation related to flavouring, usage restrictions, compliance with Pharmacopoeia/European/ISO standards, specifications, Certificates of Analysis (CoA), quality control and traceability.
A CAREFULLY SELECTED RANGE OF FLAVOURINGS
developed with our global industrial partner: liquid, powder, encapsulated and microencapsulated flavours, bitterness masking solutions, technologies adapted to taste and stability, and flavour matching when required.
This positioning enables us to support pharmaceutical and nutraceutical laboratories, CMO/CDMOs, and manufacturers of medicines and food supplements in over 30 countries.
Our role goes beyond simply supplying ingredients. Pharmarôme acts as a strategic partner, coordinating the needs of R&D, Quality, Regulatory and Procurement teams around one goal: ensuring effective, compliant and reproducible flavouring solutions.
A COMMITTED PARTNER: QUALITY, COMPLIANCE AND SUPPLY SECURITY
We support Procurement, R&D, formulation and Regulatory teams in all flavour-related projects: new product development, line extensions, flavour matching, flavour selection based on dosage form:
POWDERS
CHEWABLE TABLETS

SYRUPS AND ORAL SOLUTIONS
SHAPING THE FUTURE OF PHARMACEUTICAL FLAVOURING
The market is evolving: changing patient expectations, demand for naturality and clean label, dosage form innovation, and increasingly stringent regulatory requirements.
Pharmarôme continues to grow, driven by the energy of the 3rd generation, the expertise inherited from its founders, and the support of a global industrial partner.
Our ambition remains clear: to make taste a lever for treatment adherence and to support healthcare manufacturers through their transformations.
Our commitments:
If you are looking for a partner who truly understands your constraints, formulations and challenges… Pharmarôme is by your side.
