At Laboratorios Argenol we manufacture high-quality silver, gold and platinum active ingredients, based on an experience acquired since 1939.

Due to the antimicrobial properties of silver, our products are used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries and in other industrial applications. Silver is a broad spectrum antimicrobial agent whose efficacy has been widely tested against the most harmful microorganisms that appear in everyday life, such as E. coli, Legionella, Pseudomonas, Salmonella, S. Aureus, A. Niger, among others.

In the field of pharmaceutical industry, we also manufacture active principles derived from tannic acid, such as albumin thanate, which are used in medicines or health products due to their astringent properties.
