State-of-the-art technologies guarantee high-quality algae materials for the life sciences industry.
BDI-BioLife Science is a specialist in the development of innovative technologies for the production of high-quality algae materials for the life sciences industry.
State-of-the-art in-house research facilities, supplemented by years of cooperation with renowned universities, create the basis for our leading know-how in algae research.
Our experience was first put to industrial use in our cultivation plant in Hartberg, Austria. With our new, closed cultivation procedure we guarantee:
- Year-round production
- Reliable delivery due to constant cultivation
- The strictest hygienic standards
- The highest product quality
A fully automated process control system (PCS) operates, monitors and documents all production steps. This ensures the traceability of each individual batch.
A barcode-based data capture fulfills all basic requirements for traceability necessary in the cosmetics, dietary supplement and pharmaceutical industries.
Production at BDI-BioLife Science fully complies with all EU directives.

Mission statement
We produce high quality, natural materials from algae for use in the life sciences industry and promote societal awareness of the extremely positive effects of their use.
Experience
...means to us ...
Research and development is a central topic for us. Since 2008 we have been researching algae and developing sustainable cultivation technologies focusing on obtaining high quality products. We are able to develop tailor-made products due to years of experience, state-of-the-art laboratories, ongoing market analyses and joint research projects with customers and renowned research institutes.
Reliability
...means to us ...
With our self-developed, closed algae cultivation system, we can guarantee continuous, high-quality production of algae materials in compliance with the strictest hygiene standards, regardless of location or season. This is how we establish ourselves as a reliable partner who stands for quality.
Sustainability
...means to us ...
Sustainability is in our DNA. Choosing Ökopark Hartberg as our location was decisively influenced by their use of renewable energy sources and sustainable infrastructure. Making decisions based on sustainability began as early as the process development stage, where special attention was paid to energy optimization and waste-free production. In addition, local companies were hired for the construction of the plant.
