We celebrate the innovation and advances of our partners in the biotechnology sector. CIRCE Scientific, a Majorcan company that is transforming the anti-aging treatment industry thanks to its pioneering crystalline engineering technology.
Innovation in biotechnology applied to longevity

CIRCE Scientific has developed a methodology that significantly improves the bioavailability, stability and solubility of active ingredients without altering their original chemical composition. This technology is key to enhance the absorption of bioactive compounds in the organism, favoring essential processes such as cellular repair, antioxidant protection and activation of genes related to longevity.
According to Fernando Barrera, CEO of CIRCE Scientific: “Our technology solves the problem of low bioavailability of many active ingredients, optimizing their efficacy and offering accessible solutions for the nutraceutical and cosmetic industry. We believe this innovation will change the way we approach healthy aging”.
A revolution in the nutraceutical and cosmetic industry
CIRCE Scientific’s co-crystallization technology sets a new standard in the formulation of nutraceutical and cosmetic products. According to Rafel Prohens, co-founder of the company and professor at the Faculty of Pharmacy of the University of Barcelona: “This innovation increases the efficacy of ingredients, offering viable alternatives to address aging from a cellular approach. It allows us to develop more efficient and sustainable solutions for the industry”.
Key benefits of co-crystallization technology
