Innovating to generate the vital energy that powers our day-to-day actions. Pierre Fabre Laboratories is guided by science, attentive to patients and healthcare professionals, inspired by nature, bolstered by solid partnerships, and driven by the commitment of our employees and our stakeholders' trust. We leverage innovation to serve our company purpose: “Every time we care for a single person, we make the whole world better.”.

Innovating according to a holistic approach that stems from our unique perception of the care continuum. We develop new treatments along with solutions for alleviating their side effects. We are attentive to what patients have to say, so that we can develop evermore effective treatments and health products. We learn from healthcare professionals, and, at the same time, we share our scientific and clinical knowledge with them.

Innovating means boldly investing in the most specialized areas of medical expertise, to meet the vast therapeutic needs in oncology, dermatology and rare diseases. Our willingness to take such risks underscores our determination to open up new, highly promising therapeutic pathways.

Innovating means developing dermo-cosmetic products that are an extension of our medical mission, to help patients and consumers live better. Our brands, at the intersection of cosmetics and medical dermatology, create products to the same high standards of efficacy and safety as those applied to drugs.

Innovating means co-constructing. One conviction underpins everything we do: together, we will progress further and faster for the benefit of patients and consumers.

Innovating means making our CSR policy an ambitious priority through concrete measures: investing to decarbonize our operations and guarantee the responsible sourcing of our natural active ingredients; creating alliances that lead to game-changing transformations in eco-social product design.

Innovating means fighting cancer and rare diseases, to develop best-in- class dermo-cosmetic care products, co-innovating with our stakeholders. These are the “new ways to care” championed by Pierre Fabre Laboratories, which we are proud to share with you in this annual report.

We take care of life by designing and developing innovative solutions inspired by consumers and patients, and contributing to the well-being of everyone from health to beauty.
