Natural Technology Engineering

ABR (Active Bio Research), formerly known as Natural Technology Engineering (NTE), is an Italian biotechnology company that specializes in the development and production of high-purity natural active ingredients using a proprietary plant cell culture platform. By cultivating plant stem cells in controlled bioreactors, the company produces standardized phytocomplexes that are free from environmental contaminants, pesticides, and heavy metals. This sustainable approach allows for the consistent production of secondary metabolites that are often difficult to obtain through traditional agriculture. The company's portfolio targets the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmeceutical industries, with specific applications in dermatology, metabolic health, and anti-inflammatory treatments. ABR provides both a catalog of proprietary ingredients and custom R&D services for industrial partners seeking innovative bio-based solutions.
