GoFuture – Responsible Thinking and Acting at Biotest
At Biotest, we are mindful of our responsibility toward patients, plasma donors, and future generations. That is why we integrate responsible conduct into our business processes and take environmental, social, and economic factors into account in our decision-making.
The internal campaign GoFuture brings together initiatives and projects through which Biotest highlights its environmental, social, and societal responsibilities in day-to-day business operations. The goal is to raise employee awareness of these issues and motivate them to participate in concrete actions both at work and beyond.
Responsible Use of Resources in the “Biotest Next Level“ Production Facility
At Biotest, we view responsible conduct as a long-term commitment to people, the environment, and resources. Our philosophy, “From Nature for Life,” reflects our commitment to handling donated human plasma—a valuable biological raw material—with care and responsibility.
With its new “Biotest Next Level” (BNL) production facility, Biotest has created one of the most state-of-the-art production facilities for plasma proteins. Even during the planning and construction phases, special emphasis was placed on efficiency, modern technologies, and more resource-efficient production processes. BNL supports our commitment to providing high-quality therapies while using resources responsibly. Learn more here.
The LINFA Mural
As part of the GoFuture campaign, a large-scale mural was created on the Biotest parking garage in collaboration with the internationally renowned eco-artist Iena Cruz. The artwork combines creativity with the goal of bringing key themes of the GoFuture campaign—including responsibility, resource awareness, and a forward-looking mindset—to the forefront in the corporate environment.
"LINFA" is the first EcoArt mural in Germany
““LINFA is a vertical storytelling experience, starting from the bottom to the top. It portrays how one ecosystem sustains the life and functionality of another, emphasizing the intricate web of interdependence in nature.”
Iena Cruz, EcoArt artist
Future Seeds – Making Responsible Actions Visible
With the documentary Future Seeds, released on Prime Video, Biotest is fostering dialogue on environmental awareness and social responsibility. The project highlights different perspectives on responsible action and aims to inspire forward-thinking.
The message is clear: everyone can and must play a part in building the future, even if that contribution begins with something as small as a single seed.
We at Biotest are extremely proud that our initiative, GoFuture, is featured in this docu-fiction. Its inclusion helps raise awareness and inspire even greater engagement with this important cause.

The GoFuture Forest
As part of the GoFuture campaign, Biotest has planted 12,000 trees in small-scale agroforestry projects across various regions of the world. These trees are cared for directly by local farmers and deliver both environmental and social benefits. Throughout their lifetime, the trees absorb CO₂ from the atmosphere and store it in their biomass, thereby removing carbon from the air. In the first 10 years alone, the 12,000 trees of the GoFuture Forest are expected to sequester approximately 3,167 tonnes of CO₂.
