As one of the first softgel contract manufacturer in Europe, ARCO became by the years, a specialist in producing softgel for the pharmaceutical new nutraceutical industry. ARCO continues his growth by reaching in 1962, the authorization to produce drugs, and later on as one of the first companies in 1986, the GMP approval.
In the further years, ARCO extended his plant twice in 1991 and 2000. Until today, it continues this modernization in adaption to the latest EU GMP rules.
