Social Projects
Through the Solidarity Sport project, we introduce karate lessons to children and teenagers. As well as practicing sport, we provide guidance on caring for the body and mind, as well as essential values such as cooperation and citizenship. We seek not only to train athletes, but also conscious and resilient citizens, ready to face life's challenges with determination and ethics.
In 2024, Biolab, in partnership with Profarma Distribuição, supported an expedition by the NGO Doutores do Mundo (Doctors of the World) - an organization made up of volunteer doctors from various specialties who provide health care to communities in remote and vulnerable regions of Brazil. In this action, Biolab undertook to supply high-quality medicines to meet the needs of the population served by the NGO Amor e Esperança, located in Brejo de Beberibe, in Recife (PE).
Reinforcing its commitment to caring for life at all stages, Biolab is supporting the Support Group for Adolescents and Children with Cancer (GRAACC) through the Ronald McDonald Institute's McDia Feliz campaign. The company buys tickets for the campaign and presents its employees and dependents with a Big Mac, encouraging solidarity on the day of the action.
We believe that education and entrepreneurship are fundamental to social development. Through our collaboration with the SBA Girassol - German Benevolent Society project, we reinforce our commitment to this cause. This project offers vocational courses for young people in situations of social vulnerability. As well as preparing them for the job market, the courses also include an entrepreneurship module to encourage participants to explore opportunities and seek innovation.
Biolab is promoting Solidarity Christmas, an initiative that reinforces the company's commitment to solidarity and caring for the communities around its units.
Donation of Basic Food Baskets
Employees contribute a symbolic amount and nominate a family to benefit from a Christmas hamper for residents of the communities surrounding the plants.
Christmas gifts for institutions
Clothes, shoes, toys and hygiene items are collected from employees and transformed into Christmas kits for children and teenagers from nearby charitable institutions.
Biolab joins forces with Santa Casa every year to support the Scientific and Assistance Expeditions Program (PECA), a project that has been bringing medical care and hope to underprivileged communities since 2004. In 2025, the action took place in Socorro/SP, treating 633 patients with the help of 450 volunteers.

As a Brazilian company, we are proud to support exhibitions by national artists both in Brazil and abroad, as well as art books that play a fundamental role in the dissemination and historical recording of our culture.
The artists supported by Biolab bring a unique diversity to the art world. They include:
A visual artist, Bia Doria has devoted most of her career to sculpture. She classifies her art as "sustainable contemporary", since she uses techniques that make use of forest waste. She has exhibited her work in galleries in France and the United States.
With a degree in architecture, Antonio Hélio Cabral's work is diverse and ranges from humorous drawings to geometric compositions and brutalist works.
Carlos Alberto de Araújo Filho's work stands out for its perfect mastery of technique combined with his talent. His work, inspired by universal religiosity, is internationally renowned.
Painter, architect, designer and visual programmer, Claudio José Tozzi began his career as a visual artist in 1963, and since then his work has migrated from pop to conceptual style and involves color, pigment and light.
David Dalmau is an artist, photographer and set designer. His paintings depict the tradition of European figurative expressionism and highlight urban themes.
Artist Eliane Goes has had a passion for drawing since she was 8 years old. Over the course of her career, she has developed prints for women's brands, made cartoons and paintings on various types of surfaces.
