Company profile

The visionary idea to provide the biotechnological industry and research community with equipment for excellence led to the foundation of Bioengineering in 1972. This idea has been put into practice by designing and constructing fermentation systems, including all components for large and small scales. By expansion of our product portfolio, based on the latest advancements in biotechnology, we are carrying this founding concepts into the 21st century.

Our company has been independent and autonomous since it was established. This approach has little in common with current corporate mind sets and the vast array of management models, which allegedly have answers for everything. It gives us the liberty for result-orientated commitment to the process specifications. Our research and design teams know how to set customers’ ideas on the road to implementation and turn them into practical reality, based on optimised organisational structures and – not least – sound financial planning.

Product portfolio

Engineering & Design We build plants for our customers that meet their specific requirements. We do this at Bioengineering by having a team of dedicated engineers and designers working on every stage of a project. From the idea to the finished plant, there is a strong culture of innovation. Our many years of experience in project management enable us to implement fast-track projects efficiently.

Service The support we offer goes beyond the planning, construction, and commissioning of plants. We provide expert knowledge, servicing, inspection, and documentation to assist with the operation of your plants. We perform two roles in one: that of an expert and a reliable partner.

Plants We design and build complete bioreactor and fermenter systems for well-known pharmaceutical and food companies. These systems are used in laboratories

and production facilities to manufacture vaccines, biosimilars, starter cultures, and other products. It is no accident that our plants serve as a reference for an entire industry. With more than 45 years of experience in building plants, we have the experience, the knowledge, and the innovative capacity to realise even the most complex of plants.

Bioprocess Control We develop complex automation solutions with software and hardware for the plants and are thus in a position to offer a wide range of architectures and designs. This helps our customers to manage and monitor their plants perfectly and reliably.

Lab & Pilot We develop and build fermenters and bioreactors for laboratories and production facilities across the world. These range from small expandable modular bench-top devices for research and development departments to scalable big plants for the manufacturing industry.

Components We develop and build components for our customers’ plants which perform very specific tasks depending on the application and the requirements. For example, components which ensure that cleaning is carried out in compliance with strict hygiene regulations and which have been reliably carried out in our plants for many years.

Every customer enjoys the advantages of our modular design approach: cost-effective transport, rapid installation, and streamlined testing and quality control. Our quality-assurance manual is the control system that ensures unified monitoring and documentation of the entire production sequence, with precise specifications, instructions, and prescribed procedures.

But the commitment to our customer does not end, once the system is installed and qualified. For us quality assurance also means providing our customers with aftersales services and replacement parts for many years to come. We have honoured that commitment for every facility built by Bioengineering since 1972.
