TRADITION AND TECHNOLOGY
A QUALITY REFERENCE FOR BOTANICAL EXTRACTS SINCE 1933

Established in Milan, EPO Srl is a family company, specialized in the production of high quality botanical extracts since 1933. The extracts are suitable for the food (food and food supplements), pharmaceutical, feed and cosmetic industries; they are also used in the textile and detergent industry, as well as in agriculture.
EPO is the Italian acronym of “Estratti Piante Officinali” that means extracts made from medicinal plants.
The company, which is still based in Milan, has modern production facilities in Fizzonasco di Pieve Emanuele (MI), in the southern part of Milan, an area characterized by an agricultural vocation, where the food supply chain is strongly present.
