Corporate Profile
United-Guardian, Inc. is a publicly-traded (NASDAQ:UG) fully integrated research, development,
manufacturing, and marketing company that has been supplying unique and innovative products to the
personal care, health care, pharmaceutical, and industrial sectors since 1942. The company's products are
developed and manufactured by the company’s Guardian Laboratories Division at its 50,000 square foot
facility in Hauppauge, New York. Some of its products are proprietary formulations with unique combinations
of properties and ingredients. The cosmetic ingredients are marketed through a worldwide network of
marketing partners, and are used by many of the major multinational cosmetic companies. The
pharmaceuticals are sold primarily to full-line drug wholesalers, which distribute them to pharmacies,
hospitals, physicians, long-term care facilities, and other health care providers. The health care products are
primarily medical products marketed directly to manufacturers of medical devices and other medical products,
which incorporate them into their finished products and distribute them to hospitals, pharmacies, and other
health care facilities. The specialty industrial products are sold directly to manufacturers of industrial products.
The company's most important product line is its extensive LUBRAJEL® line of water-based moisturizing and
lubricating gel products, which are used in both the company’s cosmetic and medical products. The focus of
the company's research at the present time is on developing additional products for the cosmetic ingredient
market, especially ingredients that can be used to formulate “natural” cosmetic products.
Over the years the company has been issued over 32 patents. The company currently relies primarily on
proprietary manufacturing methods and product formulations, which are protected as trade secrets, rather
than patent protection, thereby eliminating the public disclosure required to obtain limited-duration patent
protection. It has also received ISO 9001:2015 registration from Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., indicating
that its documented procedures and overall operations have attained the very high level of quality needed
for this global certification level.
