The company will continue to operate as a producer of beneficial insects and mites under the name, CBC BIOPLANET Srl, and will serve the international market through its own branches already present in France, Greece and Spain, in addition to the existing distribution network and CBC branches around the world, while in the national market, it will integrate into the BIOGARD® network," Veronelli pointed out.

With almost 40 years of history, BIOPLANET is the first Italian producer of beneficial insects and mites for biological pest control in agriculture. 


Founded in 1985 as Biolab, a spin-off of Bologna University led by the late Prof. Giorgio Celli, it then developed into BIOPLANET at the end of the last century, through the initiative of some employees.

The growing demand for bioprotection tools in agriculture with the need to increase production investments and market outlets, together with the long-term collaboration between BIOPLANET and CBC, have led to this evolution that will give the company a wider international scope.


Together with BIOPLANET, CBC BIOGARD® will fulfill its strategy in the bioprotection sector for agriculture combining a UNIQUE range of synergistic and compatible products. A full range of plant protection products with low impact to the environment, operators and consumers have been developed on scientific basis and produced at the highest quality and reliability standards.


BIOGARD®, a Division of CBC (Europe) Srl, was created in June 2012 by merging CBC (Europe) and Intrachem Bio Italia, two ″pioneer″ companies in the development and marketing of biological controls since the 1980s. BIOGARD® is recognised as a pioneer in this market with a long history and good experience on biocontrol R&D and promotion. For this reason, BIOGARD® is considered a reference for the EU Biocontrol market. Over the past twenty years, BIOGARD® developed and registered successfully, in the EU market, several bioinsecticides, biofungicides and bionematicides. Its catalogue includes proprietary products, such as Naturalis (Beauveria bassiana ATCC74040), AQ 10 (Ampelomyces quisqualis I10) and Lepinox Plus/Rapax AS (B.t. kurstaki EG2348) for which BIOGARD® has Annex I authorizations and product registrations in several EU countries, which were carried out by our R&D and Regulatory teams.


BIOGARD® portfolio covers a full range of products from pheromones for Mating Disruption, manufactured by the Japanese company, Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. Ltd., a world class leader in the field of semiochemicals, to a number of microbiological and natural-origin bioprotectants, specialty fertilizers and plant growth promoters. Technical support for the technology transfer and marketing of the products are managed by a highly qualified technical and marketing team with many years of field experience in developing and supporting biocontrol products.
