In the vibrant city of Guangzhou, a company is making breakthroughs in the fields of pharmaceutical peptides, cosmetic peptides, and innovative beauty raw materials. This company is Guangzhou Congen Pharmatec Co.,Ltd. Abbr. Congen pharma . Since its establishment in 2013, Congen pharma has been at the forefront of the pharmaceutical and cosmetic technology industry, becoming a model for technology-driven innovation.
Abundant Achievements and Numerous Honors
Congen pharma boasts over 2,000 square meters of R&D and pilot-scale laboratories, including synthesis, quality control, formulation, and efficacy evaluation departments. Its complete hardware facilities provide a solid foundation for scientific research. Congen pharma adheres to the development philosophy of "integrity-based, innovation-driven, teamwork and co-creation of beauty," always prioritizing innovation as its core driving force.
In terms of technological innovation,Congen pharma has achieved remarkable results. The company's independently developed EMPHASES ® liquid-phase peptide synthesis technology is a global first, effectively solving the technical challenges of large-scale peptide production. It has been granted 5 Chinese patents, 1 US patent, and 1 Japanese patent. This technology uses a liquid carrier to replace the traditional solid-phase resin, achieving liquid-liquid reactions, increasing reaction speed, shortening reaction time, improving synthesis efficiency, reducing the use of amino acids, condensing agents, and solvents, reducing three wastes emissions, and effectively controlling costs. This not only gives the company a market advantage but also provides a green and efficient solution for the cosmetic peptide and pharmaceutical peptide industries.
The company has received numerous honors. To date, it has applied for 40+ invention patents, with 23 authorized. It has also been recognized as a Guangdong Province Specialized, Refined, and Unique SME, a Guangdong Province Intellectual Property Demonstration Enterprise, a Guangzhou Municipal Enterprise Research and Development Institution, a Guangzhou Municipal Science and Technology Innovation Small Giant Enterprise, a Guangzhou Municipal "Two Highs and Four News" (Specialized, Refined, and Unique) Enterprise, and a Green Enterprise. Furthermore, it has won the Guangdong Cosmetic Society Science and Technology Progress Second Prize, the China Cosmetic Science and Technology Golden Spike Award, the National Disruptive Technology Innovation Competition Excellent Project Award, the third prize in the Nanjing University "Li Xing Cup" Global Alumni Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition Finals, and the Guangzhou Excellent Award in the China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition.
Innovative Technology Platform, Favored by Leading Brands
In the era of efficacy, raw material innovation has become the cornerstone of cosmetic innovation, and innovation and application at the source are fundamental to brand breakthroughs.
It is understood that Congenpharma has reached strategic partnerships with several leading brands, successfully developing several new raw materials and innovative products such as anti-aging cyclic peptides, hypoallergenic retinol, and hair repair agents. This has achieved breakthroughs in synthesis and efficacy, providing strong support for the upgrading of China's cosmetics industry.
In cosmetic raw material applications, Congenpharma has developed five major technology platforms covering multiple areas such as stabilization, enhancement, and delivery, addressing multiple industry pain points. For example, the unique carrier designed through the Inactiv™ nano-locking technology platform can inhibit the P-glycoprotein target, reducing the efflux of active substances in cells and significantly enhancing the effect. The Hydractiv™ water-soluble enhancement technology platform successfully solves the problem of poor water solubility of ferulic acid, salicylic acid, and other ingredients, while improving their efficacy and providing greater freedom for formulation design.
Industry Pioneer, Standard Setter
Congen pharma not only continuously innovates in product development but also actively participates in the formulation of various group standards, including the Guangdong Provincial Boseine group standard, promoting technological progress and industrial development. In addition, the quality standards of tocopherol and hexamidine from Tongjun Pharmaceutical are higher than EU standards and European Pharmacopoeia standards, setting a higher quality benchmark for the industry with its excellent quality.
Over a Decade of Deep Cultivation, Writing a "Core" Future
After more than a decade of deep cultivation, Tongjun Pharmaceutical has firmly established itself at the forefront of the industry in R&D, application, and industrialization. As a highly recognized technology-based enterprise in the industry, Tongjun Pharmaceutical is using practical actions to help China's beauty industry gain more international influence and is committed to creating a powerful "Chinese core" for the beauty and health industry.
Congen pharma is using innovation as its pen to write a new chapter in the fields of pharmaceutical and cosmetic active ingredients.
