Biora cosmetics

PAST AND PRESENT OF BIORA COSMETICS

Biora company was founded on the 1st of July in 1990 by Jan Galatík as the first private manufacturer of cosmetics in Hodonín. The company used the results of the development of drug-filled forms of high-molecular hyaluronic acid and Hyal-OK Movisin eye drops, according to patented procedures by Antonin Galatík. These formulations have been determined for use in ophthalmology and orthopedics. Development was conducted in a laboratory of Movis II. company in Skalica in the Slovak Republic. Work was initiated by an eye surgeon, Doctor Kuběna, since these products were not available for eye health. After 1990, our market began to distribute them and they became widely available. At the same time our product was deemed suitable material as an ingredient in cosmetic collagen. The importance and possibilities of production of hyaluronic acid technology paved the way for the manufacture in the field of cosmetic products.

In 1991, production began with the first trademarks BIOHAR and BIODERM.

In 1992, on the basis of legislative changes, the business acquired a manufacturing facility in Hodonín on Slavíkova Street. Here occurred the final packaging of products into consumer packages. This was apparently the first use of hyaluronic acid in cosmetics, without using preservatives, in sterile ampoules. Later, the small Czech producer BIORA was forced under pressure from the French firm Bioderma to change the product name and trademark on Bioraderm.

In 1995, the production began of lotions based on hyaluronic acid for regular and daily use. These were the Skin Rejuvenation Water for women and Aftershave Rejuvenation Lotion intended for men. In this year reconstruction of the main building was completed by the construction company in Biora in Hodonín and the operation was tailored to sanitary requirements, which were needed after our country´s entrance into the European Union. Final building approval was carried out on the 16th of June in 1995. During this year a dietary supplement was developed based on bee pollen, royal jelly and hyaluronan under the trade name Ambrosio H.

In 1996, production began on another important product of a series of medical cosmetics, which was the massage gel lubricant ligament Biora. It became very popular with sportsmen, even people with mobility problems. It replaced, in some cases, expensive injection molds and extended the application of this active substance, particularly in the prevention of degenerative changes of athletes and physical problems of the aging.

In 1997, after sun gel was introduced into production, this enabled regeneration of the skin after excessive sunbathing. It is also effective for heat radiation burns, but as a cosmetic it is not designed for these applications. Another interesting product, after biting by mosquitoes, the gel was successfully tested on the mosquito calamity that followed the floods in Moravia in 1997.

In 2000, the company was transformed into Biora Ltd. Objects have been accompanied by food supplements.
Between 2003 and 2004, in relation to EU accession, the company Biora introduced a system method of critical control points and all products have been notified by the Ministry of Health. In 2005, the company began development of a cosmetic product based on pure collagen, BIORAGEL. As the first cosmetic product in the form of foam crisp collagen, it was confirmed as effective at suppressing skin wrinkle relief and skin rejuvenation.

 

In 2007, the sun product BIORA SUN MILK was developed and we started collaboration with the company JG s.r.o. for the development of other cosmetic products. After the Czech Republic joined the EU and the Schengen area, new possibilities and business partners opened. There has been innovation and complement of the entire range of cosmetic brands and Biora products focused particularly on pharmaceutical suppliers.

 

The company Biora, Ltd. is currently developing supplements, and assessment of their approval authority is still ongoing.
