Since 1993, ACIC Europe Limited has been actively developing specialty products for API markets in Europe and other countries. They started their operations with the global marketing of a North American based integrated manufacturer of Lactulose and successfully partnered with European pharmaceutical companies to introduce their product to market.
Today, ACIC Europe has grown to offer a complete range of APIs as well as outsourcing opportunities for finished pharmaceutical specialties. Since the advent of EU directives 2004/27 and 2004/28, ACIC Europe is the ideal source of APIs from GMP-compliant sources. Leveraging on their US affiliate's over thirty years experience GMP compliance, drug master files, and plant audits/inspections with the FDA, they have the resources in place to reliably and efficiently supply your API needs.

The ACIC team includes a full-service in-house regulatory and compliance group. In addition to reviewing DMFs, ACIC's audit team frequently inspect facilities so as to both prepare them for GMP compliance as well as ensure ongoing compliance in line with the applicable regulatory changes and industry best practices. They also offer training for API manufacturing personnel with respect to DMF preparation and GMP compliance matters.
