📖 1982 · “Korean-style” laboratory equipment begins in Bucheon
N-Biotech Co., Ltd.'s roots are Manhattan Trading, which started in Bucheon in 1982. At that time, Korean research labs were almost 100% dependent on imports for basic experimental equipment such as incubators, shakers, and centrifuges. Starting from the question, "Why can't Korea have our own experimental equipment?", Manhattan began designing and manufacturing the first generation of Korean life science equipment.
In 1987, the company was converted to Vision Science Co., Ltd., established Sinbiotech Co., Ltd. in 2000, and in 2003, the company name was confirmed as the current N-BIOTEK (N-BIOTEK). Headquartered in Building 402 of Bucheon Techno Park, we have grown together with the Korean life science equipment industry at the same location for 43 years.
🧬 2008 · CEO Dae-yong Kim inaugurated, major change to total stem cell solution
In 2008, Dr. Dae-yong Kim took office as the second CEO, and the company's coordinates changed. The great transition from a laboratory equipment company to a “stem cell total solution provider” has begun. Rather than simply selling equipment, we have established the world's only "end-to-end" model in which one company providesequipment + bio clean room design + stem cell culture, freezing, and processing technology consulting.
CEO Daeyong Kim Vision:"Contributing to the health and happiness of humanity through the highest quality life science equipment and total stem cell solutions. Toward the world's first conditional approval for autologous fat-derived stem cell therapy."

💬 Core Technology FAQ
Q. Stem Cell Total Solution — What does it mean?
A. This means that one company supplieseverything needed by hospitals that want to introduce stem cell treatment. (1) Cell processing equipment (incubators, clean benches, workstations, etc.), (2) Design and construction of bio clean rooms, (3) Isolation, culture and freezing kits (STEMPIA), (4) Operation technology consulting and personnel training — other companies only do some of these.
Q. How far has ReBornStem knee arthritis treatment come so far?
A. Received clinical trial approval from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety in 2023. It is an autologous cell therapy in which stem cells isolated from autologous fat are injected into the patient's knee. Depending on the clinical results, the goal is to obtain conditional approval for the world's first autologous fat-derived stem cell therapy in the future. In addition to knees, glaucoma, hair loss, psoriasis, and diabetes pipelines are in the development stage.
Q. What is the background to entering 64 global countries?
A. Starting with OEM exports in the early 2000s, the company transitioned to own brand exports in 2004, and went through joint venture facilities in China and Vietnam in the 2010s, and is currently operating 110 agencies. In 2016, we founded our own academic society, ISSCA, and held conferences in Morocco, Turkey, Mongolia, and Malaysia, creating the “Korean life science equipment = N-Biotek” brand. Officially selected as a Global Small Giant Company by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups in 2022.
Q. What differentiates us from other stem cell companies?
A. (1) 43 years of Korean life science equipment manufacturing experience since 1982, (2) the 4th Ministry of Food and Drug Safety approved CPF (cell processing facility) - only 4 domestic companies, (3) full-stack lineup of equipment + kit + treatment + cosmetics, (4) global direct sales network in 64 countries, (5) own academic society ISSCA·IRMA has global academic influence through its operations.
