Overview
Sepmag is a Barcelona-based company specializing in magnetic separation technology, a critical tool for sample preparation in diagnostics and bioprocessing. Its proprietary systems address key industry pain points by delivering uniform magnetic force to prevent bead aggregation and integrating real-time optical monitoring for objective process control and optimization. This enables seamless scale-up from R&D to commercial production, ensuring high yields and reproducibility for customers including major diagnostics and biotech firms like Abbott, Roche, and BioNTech. The company operates as a private, revenue-generating equipment and platform provider within the broader diagnostics and life science tools sector.
Technology Platform
Proprietary magnetic separation systems that generate a uniform magnetic force across the entire sample vessel, combined with real-time optical process monitoring and software analytics (Sepmag MONITOR/QUALITANCE) to provide objective, data-driven control over separation endpoints.

Competitive Landscape
Sepmag competes in the magnetic separation segment against large diversified players like Thermo Fisher Scientific and Merck KGaA (MilliporeSigma), as well as other specialized firms. Its primary competitive differentiation is the combination of a uniform magnetic field with integrated real-time optical monitoring and software analytics, a feature not commonly offered by standard magnetic separators which rely on visual timing.
