Sicit Group

Founded in 1960, SICIT was one of the first companies in the world to introduce collagen-based protein hydrolysates into the global agricultural market. As pioneer of the circular economy, through a process of hydrolysis of residues from the tanning industry, SICIT creates high-added-value crop biostimulants, and plaster retardants for the construction industry. SICIT expanded its portfolio to seaweed extracts with the acquisition of Patagonia Biotecnologia, becoming a pioneer in the extraction and marketing of novel algae species such Macrocystis Pyrifera. Further, SICIT chemical extraction and agronomic R&D teams have developed an innovative plant extract based on Moringa, also known as the "miracle tree", that will come to market soon. Thanks to its qualified team's relentless pursue of engineering excellence and quality, highly automated and technological production plants, state-of-the-art laboratories and constant investments in R&D, SICIT has become a reference operator at international level, its products are sold in 70+ countries, primarily focused on a long-standing B2B model, supplying the main players in the agrochemical and industrial sectors. Backed by strong private equity shareholders, TPG Rise Climate and Renaissance Partners provide the stability and support to further build up production capacity, drive business internationalization, and sustain R&D investment in innovation.
