Launched in Paris more than 35 years ago, Biologique Recherche has a high-class reputation. It was founded by parent and son team Yvan, Josette and Philippe Allouche – who worked respectively as a biologist, a physiotherapist and a doctor. Doctor Philippe gradually took over the business from his parents in the early 2000s.

The company originally functioned as a research and development laboratory and the company maintains a technical focus through the scope of Philippe’s experience in intensive care units.
