The passion for our products is already in the name, “VALO BioMedia.” Whereas “VALO” stands for “Vakzine Lohmann” and thus for our history, BioMedia indicates that we are a producer of biological growth media. These are primarily chicken eggs but also related products such as primary cell cultures or SPF animals (for example, turkeys, ducks or pigs).

We offer advanced services for all our products that serve to optimize processes along the entire value chain including: on-site technical service, vaccine strain specific incubation of SPF or clean eggs, contract rearing of animals, custom production of primary cell cultures, or other pre­cursors for final vaccine production.

Clean Eggs
More about Clean Eggs

“Clean eggs” are fertilized eggs from flocks that have already been vaccinated. Our customers use them for the production of inactivated vaccines for humans and animals.

SPF eggs
More about SPF eggs

We produce specified pathogen free eggs or for short SPF eggs. These eggs are free of certain pathogens. Our customers use these SPF eggs to produce live vaccines for humans and animals or use them in pharmaceutical research (drug development, cancer research).

SPF chicks and pullets
More about SPF chicks and pullets

Animal husbandry, and the hatching and rearing of chickens associated with it, is our daily bread. We are experts in this field. We offer this know-how to our customers as a service at our locations in Germany, France, and the USA. 

Value Added Services

Incubation
More about Incubation

Incubation of eggs is a critical factor for subsequent vaccine yield both in the use of clean eggs for inactivated vaccines and in the use of SPF eggs for live vaccine production.

Primary cell cultures
More about Primary cell cultures

Some vaccines are produced or propagated in primary cell cultures (CEF – Chicken Embryo Fibro­blasts) (for example rabies, TBE, small­pox, and Marek’s disease).
