Our servicesOverview
Our open world has been undergoing in-depth
geopolitical, societal and economic upheavals,
requiring ever-more competitiveness and security
for businesses, people and countries. To meet those
new needs, at Bertin Technologies, we rely on the
real strengths of our DNA: passion for innovation, field
expertise of diversified technologies and agile mindset
to anticipate market trends.
In 2014, our activity grew in close synergy with our parent company, CNIM.
In particular, we conducted major research and development in the field of
energy efficiency, related to absorption heat pumps. This initiative allowed
CNIM to acquire and successfully promote a new range of equipment and
services in this area (p.4).

big data multimedia content processing, to various customers throughout the
world. That offer is one of our priorities for growth in 2015 (p.12).
Drawing on our success in the field of lab equipment as well as chemical,
biological and nuclear detection, Bertin went one step further in late 2014
with the acquisition of Saphymo, a leading French provider of solutions for
detecting and measuring ionizing radiation. As a result, Bertin has become
a key player in the field of scientific instrumentation for defense, nuclear,
environment and life science sectors (p.8).
Last but not least, by incorporating the Johnson & Johnson Santé Beauté
R&D site near Bordeaux in early 2014, our subsidiary Bertin Pharma, has
unquestionably positioned itself on the growing market of R&D services for
OTC, over-the-counter drugs (p.14).

Recognized by its customers and the DREAL*, Bertin’s business
in industrial risk management is booming. To cope with the
demand, an office was opened in the Lyon area.
For example, a FMECA* analysis was conducted for an
industrialist supplying fluids to a range of companies set up
on an industrial platform. The analysis established solutions
for improvement to avoid critical production shutdowns.
*DREAL : Regional Management for the Environment,
Urban Planning and Housing

The French Institute for Radiological Protection and Nuclear
Safety (IRSN) sought to identify the risks of a boiling crisis
in used fuel storage pools in the event of a Fukushima-
type situation. To meet that request, Bertin carried out the
pre-definition stage of an experimental mock-up based on
3D-multiphysics modeling.

Developing a strategic growth driver was the aim of one of
our customers, a leader in pyrotechnical equipment.
After analyzing the market and competition, Bertin
Technologies defined a diversification strategy with a move
towards deep offshore equipment: a promising market
due to its substantial operational constraints. Thanks to that
strategy, the customer obtained its initial financing on the
new market.
Bertin installed its Energy Management System for the
energy supplier, Albioma, enabling them to optimize solar-
produced energy storage and prolong the lifetime of
batteries.

Optimizing heat lost during industrial processes has become
a major challenge in view of reducing energy consumption
and greenhouse gas emissions. Encouraged by Bertin’s
RD work, CNIM decided to invest in this new line of
business and acquired INVEN, a specialist in absorption heat
pumps. CNIM builds the heat pump systems and Bertin
Technologies conducts the basic engineering.

waste from hospitals. Within the framework of funding
from the World Bank, Sterilwave®
was installed at two
hospital locations in Vietnam. The easy-to-use equipment
makes it possible to convert the waste in 30 minutes, i.e. to
bring its infectious risk down to the same level as household
waste, and reduce its volume by 80%.
When the new Precellys®
Evolution, a biological sample
homogenizer, was first launched, the American lab Leidos
was invited to test it. The Leidos research team immediately
bought the product, won over by the instrument’s
ergonomics, polyvalence and the significant reduction
in time needed for sample preparation. A consecration
all the more remarkable as it came from a BSL-4 lab, the
highest biosafety level for labs.
Bertin Corp., the American distributor of Bertin Technologies, now offers its products
directly online! The e-commerce website lets American webusers place products
distributed by Bertin Corp into their “shopping cart”. Thanks to a wish-list system,
shoppers can receive a direct quote for some pieces of higher-priced equipment. This
new tool makes it possible to place simplified orders in “real time”.

Sump strainers designed and manufactured by Bertin
Technologies have been installed in the reactor core at
the new Chinese nuclear power plant (NPP) in Fuqing.
Key elements in power plant safety, sump strainers are
designed to retain the impurities circulating in the reactor
cooling circuit in case of incidents. As a result, they prevent
damage to the pumps. This project illustrates the Bertin
team’s ability to justify their rationale of design choices for
complex systems in thermohydraulic accident scenarios.
On November 19, 2014, the Fuqing 1 power plant was
commissioned, making it the 21st Chinese nuclear power
plant in operation.

effectiveness that only science can provide.
Drawing on the skills acquired in the pharmaceutical
industry, Bertin Pharma is applying its expertise to
cosmetics: innovative formulation of a wide range of textures
and sensorial attributes, allergic response assessment, skin
penetration improvement, or even higher effectiveness
thanks to proprietary biological models. As a result, Bertin
Pharma has successfully won several projects evaluating
the effectiveness and toxicity of candidate products for a
major cosmetic group.
Obesity and diabetes are two of the biggest health
problems of the century. Over the past 30 years, obesity
has more than doubled and now concerns 1.5 billion
adults in the world. As such, Bertin Pharma was the first
European company to market ghrelin assay kits, known
as the “hunger hormone”, a determining factor in the
treatment of many diseases related to weight. The ready-
to-use kits for measuring ghrelin have been available
since 2014 in a range of formats. They are now available
for several species including humans, rats, mice, pigs and
dogs, regardless of how the blood is collected.
