50 years experience in the API market
How we satisfy our partners
Transparency
It is the long standing and profound knowledge of the continuously changing API market and its significance in healthcare, as well as anticipation and flexibility when dealing with radical changes in the industry that have allowed AET to grow over the last 50 years.
AETs API division – now called TIEFENBACHER API + Ingredients – demerged from AET in April 2015 to focus on what they call their core business – the representation of API manufacturers from all over the world in Europe.
By basing the relationships with leading principals, suppliers and clients on successful and trusting collaboration, TIEFENBACHER has the experience and ability to exceed. TIEFENBACHER is able to anticipate and satisfy the needs of the pharmaceutical and API industries.
Trusting relationships
Transparency in the relationships between the manufacturer, the commissioner and TIEFENBACHER is of paramount importance in delivering value to TIEFENBACHERs clients, and promotes trusting and open collaborations that are best able to innovate and be efficient in dealing with complex and challenging situations.
50 years experience in procurement management and superb information networks have established TIEFENBACHER as one of the most successful API procurement companies globally. More than 50 carefully selected API manufacturers from around the world provide TIEFENBACHERs clients with API. READ MORE >
