We were a “start-up” before the term even existed… What began as a small business in the university of Berlin has grown into a company, with offices in many countries and customers across the globe. Regardless of changes, our motivation remains the same: Our passion is to conduct research and tackle current challenges, with cutting-edge solutions. Even more, we love working closely with our customers to deliver quality solutions.

Many developments have seen our company at the forefront. We were the first to provide synthetic DNA in Europe. In 1998, when new technology advancements made real-time PCR faster and added a wide range of applications, we developed real-time PCR assays together with the device manufacturer and have become an innovator in the industry. We were amongst the first suppliers to offer cost effective and time-saving multiplex PCR kits, testing for different pathogens in a single PCR reaction.

Our quick response to reports of global infection, epidemics and pandemics was a result of hard work: In the cases of Anthrax, bird flu, SARS, swine flu, Ehec, MERS and today Sars-CoV-2, TIB Molbiol was always among the first to provide useful diagnostic and research tools.

Looking back at the development of our company, I am grateful to work with fantastic clients, partners and a wonderful team. Together we have contributed to the well-being of many people. This motivation has united us in the past and will certainly do so in the future.
