BIOFT, a specialized company in high-performance cosmetic ingredient R&D and finished product ODM solutions, today announced that it has entered into a strategic partnership with TER Chemicals Distribution Group (“TER Chemicals”), a globally recognized chemical distribution company with over a century of heritage. Through this partnership, BIOFT aims to accelerate its expansion into the European and broader global markets.
 
Founded in 1908 and headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, TER Chemicals has established itself as a key player in the global chemical industry. As of 2024, the group reported approximately EUR 920 million in annual revenue and employs over 1,100 professionals worldwide. Guided by a strong commitment to integrity and trust, TER Chemicals goes beyond traditional distribution by positioning itself as a “holistic partner,” offering integrated solutions encompassing logistics, formulation support, and product development.
 
Through this collaboration, BIOFT will gain access to TER Chemicals’ well-established European network, creating a powerful platform to introduce its differentiated bio-based ingredients to global markets.
 

The partnership will primarily focus on BIOFT’s flagship ingredient, Vegan PDRN, which aligns closely with the rapidly growing Clean Beauty and Sustainability trends across Europe. This next-generation ingredient combines plant-derived bioactive compounds—such as phenols and polyphenols—with the core benefits of PDRN, including skin regeneration and enhanced elasticity.
 
A key differentiator of BIOFT’s Vegan PDRN lies in its fully customized, order-made R&D capability. BIOFT selects optimal plant sources tailored to each client’s brand concept and desired skin benefits, offering an end-to-end solution from extraction to production of customized PDRN ingredients.
 
BIOFT’s technological capabilities have already been validated in the domestic market through successful collaborations with leading cosmetic brands.
 
The two companies recently held a joint presentation at in-cosmetics Paris 2026, marking a significant milestone that has led to deeper collaboration beyond a conventional supply relationship.
 
In addition, with the rising global popularity of K-beauty, interest in salmon-derived PDRN is also increasing. BIOFT is currently engaged in active discussions regarding the global supply of its high-purity salmon PDRN, further expanding its portfolio in the international market.
