Founded in 1993, Olmix is today one of the world’s specialists of marine biotechnologies and green chemistry.

Through the development of innovative and recognized natural solutions (based on biosourced raw materials), the Group supports farmers, breeders and agricultural distribution chains in adapting production models towards the emergence of sustainable agriculture. 

The Group is organized around 2 main business units:

  • Animal BU: natural solutions to improve animal welfare, nutrition & health, and thus reduce the use of chemical additives
  • Plant BU: natural solutions to improve soil structure and plant nutrition & health, and thus enable higher yield and quality of crops while reducing the use of chemicals

In October 2020, Motion Equity Partners invested in Olmix, with the ambition to position the business as a sizeable and focused growth platform through further innovation and operational optimization, as well as the launch of an ambitious M&A strategy.

“A new era for agriculture has arrived: a new cycle requiring more technicity, naturality & less phytosanitary products, antibiotics or additives. The objective is to produce better with less. For 20 years, Olmix has offered natural, environment- and animal-friendly solutions, allowing farmers to produce differently, thus responding to these new challenges.”
