The Temmler Group, which was taken over by the Aenova Group in 2012, is one of the largest European suppliers of pharmaceutical contract manufacturing with seven production sites.
history
The Temmler-Werke was founded in Detmold in 1917 by Hermann Temmler . They merged in 1919 with the Vereinigte Chemische Fabriken GmbH in Detmold to form the Vereinigte Chemische Fabriken H. Temmler . In 1925 the company's headquarters were relocated to Berlin . From 1933 the company concentrated its business activities and production entirely on the location at the Johannisthal airfield in Berlin . After the Jewish co-owner of the Tempelhof chemical factory , Albert Mendel , was forced to resign by the National Socialists in 1933 , Temmler took over stakes in the Tempelhof chemical factory in 1934. The company then traded under the name Preuß & Temmler AG . The production facilities in East Berlin were sequestered and partially dismantled in 1945 , placed under trust management from 1946 and expropriated in 1949. Production there was initially continued as VVB Pharma Temmler-Werke , later the operation was part of Berlin-Chemie , Johannisthal plant.
Temmler was best known at the time for the introduction of the methamphetamine preparation under the Pervitin brand , which continued to hold the brand until 2015. In particular during the Blitzkriegs against Poland and France in 1939/40, pervitin was used millions of times. From April to July 1940 alone, more than 35 million tablets were delivered to the army and air force . Pervitin was withdrawn from the market in 1988.
After the war, the company's business activities were initially continued in Hamburg-Neugraben and from 1960 in Marburg . Since 1982 Temmler has also been involved in contract manufacturing for other pharmaceutical companies. From 1990 to 1999 Temmler belonged to the Degussa subsidiary ASTA Medica . After that the company was privately owned.
In 2007 Temmler acquired three production sites from the Japanese pharmaceutical company Astellas in Munich, Ireland ( Killorglin ) and Italy ( Carugate ). Two further locations were added in April 2007 with the purchase of CPM ContractPharma GmbH in Feldkirchen and Bruckmühl . In 2008 Temmler took over SwissCo AG in Sisseln (CH), one of the leading manufacturers of effervescent tablets.
In October 2012 Aenova , which was bought by the financial investor BC Partners in August 2012 , took over the contract manufacturer and in October 2013 Haupt Pharma .
Temmler calendar
A calendar intended as a promotional gift for doctors, which has been published annually since the 1920s, became very popular outside of the company's customers because of its partly sexist jokes and humorous content.
Business activity
With seven production sites, the Temmler Group is one of the largest pharmaceutical contract manufacturers in Europe. Temmler works on the development, approval, production and marketing of pharmaceutical products ( drugs and dietary supplements) on behalf of third parties and for its own portfolio. In the CNS area, in addition to generics, preparations for rare neurological diseases such as Huntington's disease and myasthenia gravis are sold .
The company generates two thirds of its sales with contract work for third parties.
Some of the more well-known proprietary products include Kalymin ( pyridostigmine bromide ), Nitoman ( Tetrabenazine ), Acetocaustin ( monochloroacetic acid ), Faustan ( Diazepam ) and Regenon ( Amfepramon ).
In addition to Marburg (Temmler Pharma GmbH & Co. KG), there are also production sites in Feldkirchen-Westerham and Bruckmühl (CPM ContractPharma GmbH) as well as in Killorglin ( Ireland ) (Temmler Ireland), Carugate ( Italy ) (Temmler Italia) and Sisseln ( Switzerland ) (SwissCo AG). The locations in Munich (Temmler Werke Munich) and Bruckmühl (CPM ContractPharma GmbH & Co. KG) were given up and its productions were divided between the other Aenova locations.
