Aventis

Aventis is dedicated to improving life through the discovery and development of innovative pharmaceutical products.

We offer a range of patented prescription drugs to treat patients with serious diseases and have leading positions in a number of therapeutic areas, including respiratory/allergy, cardiology/thrombosis, oncology and diabetes. We are also world leaders in the areas of human vaccines and therapeutic proteins.





Aventis has two products with sales of more than € 1 billion and two additional products with sales of more than € 500 million that are fast approaching blockbuster status. Several other products have significant potential, and we are focusing our marketing and sales activities on this group of “strategic brands.”



Our pipeline is full with a number of therapeutic innovations in development, including compounds for the treatment of diabetes and cancer as well as respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. More than 5,000 scientists at sites in France, Germany, Japan and the United States are expanding our leading position in the discovery and development of new drugs.



Aventis is dedicated to creating and delivering products of unquestionable quality that enable people to live longer, healthier and more active lives. In this spirit, we encourage our employees to care for each other’s well being and protect the environment in all aspects of their lives. We are committed to the principles of sustainable development, which is demonstrated by our participation in the U.N. Global Compact.



Aventis was created through the December 1999 business combination of Hoechst and Rhône-Poulenc. We are transforming Aventis into a pure pharmaceutical company through the divestiture of the Aventis CropScience and Aventis Animal Nutrition businesses as well as the remaining industrial activities. Along with our pharmaceutical business, Aventis will retain a 50% stake in the animal health business Merial, a joint venture with Merck & Co. (accounted for using the equity method).
