BIŌNTE is a spin-off of Andrés Pintaluba S.A. (APSA), a company founded by D. Andrés Pintaluba Esporrín in the city of Reus in 1978.

BIŌNTE is a spin-off of Andrés Pintaluba SA (APSA), head of the Pintaluba Group, a multinational conglomerate of 14 companies based in 7 countries. 

The company is backed by +20 years of experience in the mycotoxin adsorbent market thanks to QUIMITŌX® product.

In 2022, BIŌNTE takes over from APSA the experience in the mycotoxin adsorbent segment to face a more demanding environment with specialization and technical service as differentiating elements. 

Our knowledge of the market and of the global challenges of animal nutrition, the experience and international vocation of the technical and commercial team of BIŌNTE, together with the technological and operational support of the Pintaluba Group, are the axes of work that guide the beginning of our activity as an independent company.

Our commitment, in its broadest sense, is to remain a global benchmark in mitigating the effects of mycotoxins through innovation and teamwork with the scientific community, providing effective and sustainable solutions for a better animal nutrition.

QUIMITŌX®, already present in more than 30 countries worldwide, is our starting point. Now, what really makes BIŌNTE different is: 

  • Its human team.
  • The technical-commercial experience accumulated during these 20 years.
  • Specialized knowledge by target species.
  • Our determination to offer the best technical and commercial service to our customers.

 

Not all clients pose the same challenges; raw materials, target species and regions also raise different challenges. It is for this reason that the only way to mitigate the negative effects of mycotoxins is through specialization and personalized service as well as an effective, safe and profitable product.

At BIŌNTE we make all our knowledge available to our business partners and clients, as well as the necessary resources to undertake comprehensive plans as a key to success.

The transparency and excellence of our service is what makes it possible for eliminating mycotoxins to be a differentiating fact, and for you, as a client concerned about the health and animal production and its consequences, to count on us throughout the entire process of this comprehensive activity.
