Syntegon’s Pharma business has experienced strong growth momentum
The Syntegon Group, a leading strategic partner to the global pharmaceutical, biotech and food industries, reported strong results for the first half year of 2025 compared to the prior year. Driven by the growth-focused strategy launched in 2024, the Group delivered double-digit sales growth, significantly higher profitability, and strong free cash flow, while continuing to advance on its strategic agenda.
“The first half of 2025 demonstrates the strength of our strategy, our ability to execute and our commitment to helping customers succeed by being a strategic lifecycle partner,” says Torsten Türling, CEO of Syntegon. “With strong order intake and top line growth, improved margins across all business units, and continued operational efficiency gains, Syntegon is well on track to deliver another year of record results.”
Consistent growth and profitability improvement supported by diversified portfolio
In first half of 2025, driven by the strong momentum in its Pharma segment, Syntegon achieved sales of €824m, +11% growth compared to prior year. Continued expansion in the biologics segment and increasingly stringent regulatory requirements are fueling sustained high order intake for Syntegon’s aseptic, isolator-equipped Fill & Finish line solutions. The Food business delivered strong margin expansion, reflecting the rising success of the new SVX product line and efficiency improvements across the entire Food business.
EBITDA reached €127m, an increase of +41% vs the same period of 2024, driven by sales growth and strong margin expansion, resulting in an H1 EBITDA margin of 15.5%. Margins expanded thanks to higher volumes in higher-margin projects, disciplined project execution and faster-than-expected synergies from the Telstar acquisition.
Potential headwinds from global trade developments, particularly U.S. tariffs, are being mitigated through swift measures, Syntegon’s globally balanced supply chain, and strong partnerships with customers. The company anticipates minimal impact in 2025.
Eros Carletti, CFO of Syntegon said: “In the first half of 2025, we delivered strong improvements across all financial metrics. Our value creation program and disciplined execution are translating into continued higher margins and sustainable cash flow, providing the foundation for further growth and investment in the nearest future.”
