URSATEC – The inventor of dosage systems for preservative-free applications

We invented dosage systems for the application of preservative-free medical and cosmetic formulations. Our steadily growing company has sold almost 2 billion units worldwide since it was founded in 1993. We are proud to have founded a rethinking in the market for nasal sprays and set preservative-free formulations as the new standard in Europe.

“WHEN PRESERVATIVE FREE MATTERS®”. This is more than just a slogan for us. It defines the focus of our actions and the commitment we bring to our product and service portfolio.

Quality awareness, creativity and an international network are the foundations of this development. Our young, dynamic and experienced team responds quickly and solution-oriented to the needs and wishes of our customers.

An innovative product stands at the beginning of our company history.
In 1993, we developed our first dosage system for preservative-free formulations and without propellant gas. Creativity coupled with the highest quality has been the guiding principle of our entrepreneurial activities to this day. This is what customers in our home country and abroad appreciate and they have made us what we are today: a successful, market-leading and dynamic company with the goal of supporting the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries in the development of preservative-free products.
