WHAT MOVES APOENA AND GIVES A MEANING TO OUR JOURNEY IS BIOTECHNOLOGY
MESSAGE FROM OUR OPERATIONS DIRECTOR
Apoena Biotech was born from a question posed by customers: “is this a natural product?” However, regardless of a product being categorized as natural due to its origin, there is an additional question we should ask: “is this product sustainable?”
The fact is that not all products from natural sources are necessarily sustainable.
Apoena Biotech was created to address such pain points. We are dedicated to acting on these points.
