About Us
For over 60 years delivering quality
Centroflora Group has spared no efforts in valuing Brazilian biodiversity as a source of Innovation for the Phytomedicines market.
With 64 years of history, Centroflora maintains its tradition as a manufacturer of botanical extracts, essential oils and isolated ingredients for the pharmaceutical industry. In recent years, it has also been consolidating itself as a national manufacturer of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), through new partnerships and investments to adapt its production and commercial structure.
Centroflora has technologies and processes that allow the isolation, extraction, concentration and drying of differentiated natural assets, with assured quality and traceability. As a result, it offers the market a wide variety of extracts from different regions of the planet, with special attention to those derived from Brazilian biodiversity, with total sustainability and respect for the environment; in other words, Centroflora has always acted in line with the principles that today are known as ESG.
Centroflora Group includes: (i) Anidro do Brasil; (ii) Phytobios, a company dedicated to radical and disruptive research and development, and (iii) Floravida Institute, a non-profit socio-environmental organization (NGO). In 2018, a joint venture called Brazbio has been created.
