Mebiol

Mebiol is a Japanese biotechnology company specializing in the development of advanced polymer technologies for agriculture and medicine. The company is best known for its proprietary Thermoreversible Gelation Polymer (TGP), marketed as Mebiol Gel, which transitions between liquid and gel states based on temperature. This hydrogel is widely used in regenerative medicine, 3D cell culture, and drug delivery systems due to its biocompatibility and ease of handling. Additionally, Mebiol has pioneered "Imec" film farming, a sustainable agricultural technology that uses hydrogel membranes to grow crops with significantly less water and soil. The company's innovations bridge the gap between material science and life sciences, providing solutions for global challenges in food security and healthcare.
