BIOLCHIM GROUP
Biolchim today is a synonym for biostimulants: innovative products in all aspects, in the raw materials they contain as well as in the agronomic performances that characterize them. Biolchim operates in more than 75 countries worldwide, but it is based in Italy where the production lines and the extraction units are located. Biolchim is a company where Research and Development represent the main gear that drives the whole business activity.
WIN (Worldwide Innovation Network)
Within the WIN project, Biolchim Group collaborates with the most important Italian and foreign Universities and Research Centers with the aim of transferring to the field the scientific knowledge gained in plant biology and nutrition. Selecting innovative raw materials is a key point to identify the «biostimulants of tomorrow»: in particular botanical extracts and plant-based compounds capable of combining agronomic efficacy and environmental sustainability.
THE BIOASSAYS
Collaborative research allows to identify the biostimulant potential of a raw material or product. This is achieved primarily by tests called bioassays, which provide essential information, such as the type of action of a compound on a plant, or its range of efficacy, or the effect of certain components in mixtures. The three major types of bioassays that are carried out aim at assessing the auxin-like, cytokinin-like and gibberellin-like activity of extracts on plants or plant parts.
In the laboratory, bioassays conducted on many raw materials of plant origin allow reliable and verified results in an extremely short time compared to field experiments: in one bioassay more than 100 different plants can be tested for a single molecule, at a single dosage.
EFFECTIVE AND WIDELY TESTED PRODUCTS
Biolchim offers to its customers thoroughly studied and tested products whose dosages and methods of use, mixability and effectiveness are well known. This is an essential added value for Biolchim, a guarantee of quality for each of the specialties and products in its catalog.
