As a multinational company with 100% national capital, and with more than eight decades of activity, União Química has built a history of achievements, with a prominent position among the ten largest and most solid companies in the national pharmaceutical industry.

The history of União Química began in 1936, when Laboratório Prata was founded, acquired in 1970 by João Marques de Paulo, who, with his entrepreneurial vision, gave rise to União Química Farmacêutica Nacional, a company that, since its creation, has always vision in the future.
