Bioprocess was set up in 1999 as a family-owned wholesale business for the production and export of traditional Bulgarian essential oils and floral waters. Now the expanded company activities are focused on the production and marketing of gemmotherapy extracts obtained by maceration of fresh plant buds and shoots. With more than 50 single glycerine macerates in our product list we are among the world leaders in this field.
The company factory is
located in the town of Kostenets, at the foothills of the Rila Mountains in
Bulgaria. As the largest national park in Bulgaria, the Rila
Mountains are among the most valuable protected areas in Europe. The name Rila
comes from the Thracian word “roula” meaning “lots of water.” The area is
famous for its mineral springs, rivers, thick forests and rich biodiversity,
which provides a phenomenal array of wild-grown medicinal and aromatic plants. Our
town also neighbors one of the main rose and lavender production areas at the
west end of the Valley of Roses. This location makes us uniquely positioned to
capture the vast diversity of plants that nature has to offer in Bulgaria: from
traditionally cultivated to wildgrown.
We believe that the only way to achieve true sustainability in the production of natural raw materials is through deep respect and care for the environment and equally deep social commitment to the growers and pickers, especially in areas where crops are vital to the wellbeing of the local community.
We are excited to share our products with you whether you run a business or you are simply interested in taking a more active approach in your personal health and wellness journey.
