Probiotical S.p.A.

Probiotical is an Italian dedicated probiotic-microorganism manufacturer headquartered in Novara, Piemonte. Founded in 1985 with origins tracing to a 60-year heritage in lactic acid bacteria for the dairy industry, Probiotical operates an Italy plant designed exclusively for probiotic microorganism production for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. The company's portfolio includes lyophilized and microencapsulated probiotic strains plus finished probiotic products. Probiotical is distinct from Probi AB (Swedish probiotic company already listed in Inventory Ready) — different companies, different countries, no parent overlap.

Editor’s call

Italian specialty probiotic-microorganism manufacturer with ISO 22000 + ISO 9001 + ISO 14001 certifications confirmed via official certifications page. Italy plant designed exclusively for probiotic microorganism production (per Vitafoods 2026 page) — specialization indicates manufacturing focus rather than commodity breadth. Distinct from existing Inventory Ready entry Probi AB (Swedish, different parent, different focus). 60-year organizational heritage in lactic acid bacteria (predecessor entity in dairy industry). Independent specialty company; no conglomerate parent identified. ISO 22000 satisfies the inclusion-criteria.json EU regulatory equivalent gate. Probiotic strain efficacy claims (when made by buyers) carry independent §324A risk that is the buyer's responsibility, not IR's directory listing. EU-based manufacturing; US buyers should verify FSVP compliance, request independent third-party COA re-test on first production batch, AND confirm strain-identity at strain-deposit registry references.
