OTC and personal care brands face constant pressure to launch new products that are both innovative and commercially viable. Pharma Tech Industries (PTI), a full-service Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO), has spent over 35 years as a resource to brands as they face and overcome that pressure.

  Our production facilities in Georgia and Missouri (each of which exist and operate as separate business entities) feature state-of-the-art production rooms ideal for the filling and packaging of powder-based and specialty products.
