Where sustainability and innovation go hand in hand

THEN

Biosphere’s story begins in 1998, when a food company founded its first unit led by a clear vision on the challenges of circular bioeconomy and the potential of industrial biotechnology. The journey began in a small laboratory in Bertinoro, Italy, where a passionate team of biologists and chemists gave birth to this innovative project.

In the early years, the activity of the company focused on internal research and development, driven by a deep-rooted belief in the potential of biotechnology to offer solutions for different industrial applications. Our scientists worked tirelessly to innovate and develop cutting-edge solutions in various domains, including pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and environmental science.

Over the years, we expanded our operations, consolidating our role in the Italian biotech sector and defining a business model based on the offer of contract R&D and contract manufacturing services to chemical companies in various domains, including API manufacturing, health and personal care, diagnostics, agro-industry, food & nutraceuticals, animal health and feed, household and industrial cleaning, fibers and polymers, with the aim to innovate and develop cutting-edge solutions for new sustainable industrial processes.

In 1998, the first unit of Biosphere was founded by a food company with a vision on the challenges of circular bioeconomy and the potential of industrial biotechnology.
