Our History & Mission

The Parent Company

The family-owned company, Octapharma AG, was established in 1983 with a single idea: that people with Hemophilia deserve access to better treatments.

Milestones

Headquartered in Lachen, Switzerland, Octapharma is now one of the largest human protein product manufacturers in the world. We launched our first product in 1985, opened our first manufacturing in 1990, and in 2018, celebrated 35 years of innovation and life-changing medicines.

In 2007, Octapharma Plasma, Inc. was founded in the US to operate the company’s own plasma donation centers.

Our Reach

With more than 180 donation centers around the world, we are able to serve hundreds of thousands of patients a year in 118 countries. Until the need for these medicines goes away, we will always strive to make these numbers higher.

The Future

To be the leading plasma donation company in unmatched service to our donors, our employees, and our communities.
