Biocinov

What Biocinov does

Biocinov is a French private B2B distributor and solutions provider of natural and alternative pest control products for certified professional pest control operators. The company sells exclusively through its professional e-commerce platform biocinov.fr, which requires account creation with mandatory Certibiocide and Certiphyto certification uploads. Its portfolio spans rodent control (connected LoRa traps, mechanical traps, ultrasonic and seismic repellers, rodenticides, physical barriers), flying insect control (LED traps, pheromone traps, biological agents), crawling insect control (gel baits, vegetable-based insecticides), algae and virus treatments, and bird control. The catalog combines proprietary, partner-sourced, and Ecocert-certified technologies, including patented Biogents mosquito traps (BG-Protector, BG-GAT Reflect Tech, BG-MOZZIBAIT) and RATDOWN mechanical traps.

Underlying technologies mix biological control (trichogramma micro-wasps, predator nesting boxes), mechanical systems (multi-capture electromechanical traps, ultrasonic emitters), IoT-connected solutions running on a private LoRa network with QR-code pairing and real-time capture alerts, pheromone-based trapping, and plant-derived insecticides (Ecocert-certified pyrethrum without PBO). Several products carry patents, and the portfolio is positioned against traditional anticoagulants and synthetic insecticides with claims of reduced environmental impact, lower secondary-poisoning risk, and resistance management.

Biocinov's revenue model rests on one-time product sales through the gated B2B webshop, supplemented by professional pest audits and training services. Free delivery applies above €500 HT to a single delivery point. The customer base is concentrated on certified pest control operators in France, with no disclosed geographic expansion, no parent company, no funding history, and no public revenue or headcount figures.
