As early as 1920, the grandfather of biopin founder, Barend Jan Palm, had his own painting and decorating business and also ran a factory in The Netherlands manufacturing oil paint and putty. Barend Jan Palm himself later trained in his parent’s business where he learnt a lot of the firm’s traditional recipes. It is this knowledge which formed the basis for the first biopin products. True to the Palm family tradition this knowhow and expertise is currently being passed on to the fourth generation. biopin produces innovative natural paints with the latest technology. In 1982 Barend Jan Palm started making linseed oil based primers and paints based on beeswax. The scandals concerning wood preservatives and the new trend to more ecologically sound materials increased his motivation and, of course, the demand. biopin was founded in 1984 in Wilhelmshaven. The initial range of biopin products comprised wood stains and wood refining agents made from vegetable oils and beeswax. In 1987 their first solvent-free, water based wood stains and impregnating agents were developed. They were a great success and prompted the development of further products such as solvent-free floor protection systems, protective exterior paints and varnishes as well as top coats.

In 1997 biopin moved into its new plant in Jever. Only two years later the premises had to be expanded to 6,000 m2 of production, storage and offices. The new binder melting plant enables the company to produce their own water-based resin/oil mixtures for natural paints of supreme quality. Quality control and environmental management systems were also intro-duced.

In 2001 new labs were opened on the biopin premises in Jever. Main focus is the research into applications of biopin products. 2003 a production site for vegetable binding agents was built in Ireland. 2005 DIN-EN-ISO 9001:2000 certification. 2006 First nature-plus certification worldwide for biopin stains.

早在 1920 年，德国“biopin”公司的创始人 Barend Jan Palm 先生的祖父就已经在荷兰经营一家绘画工场和一家生产油漆以及黏合剂的手工工场。在这里，Barend Jan Palm 先生的父亲和他都先后学到了这门传统的工艺。后来他的父亲也传授给他许多配方，这些配方奠定了第一批“biopin”产品的生产基础。在1982年，Barend Jan Palm 先生开始为熟识的家具作坊以及艺术建筑修复作坊调制蜂蜡油漆和亚麻浸渍油。木材防护剂的毒性事件和人们对使用生态环保材料的要求坚定了他的生产动机以及提高了人们对生态产品的需求。1984 年“biopin”蜂蜡制剂生产有限公司在 Wilhelmshaven 成立。

初期的产品包括由植物油和蜂蜡制成的木料清漆和木炼油漆等。随着产品需求的不断提升，德国“biopin”公司的规模也不断扩大。 1987 年公司研制出用天然原材料制成的不含溶剂的可以用水稀释的清漆和浸渍油。这些产品随即进入市场。紧接着，另一些新产品，例如不含溶剂的地板系列油漆，耐候油漆和覆盖漆等也被研发和推广。

1995 年，为了满足将来发展的要求，德国“biopin”公司开始计划建造一间新的天然涂料厂。 1996 年为提炼亚麻油，公司开始在北德种植亚麻树苗。 1997 年新工厂迁往 Jever 。从1999年到现在，生产、仓库和管理面积已经扩展到共 6000 平方米。新的涂料溶化设备实现了用于制造一流天然涂料的水释树脂油浆的自我生产。我们同时采用了质量和环境管理系统。 1998 年以来“biopin”涂料通过德国“biopin”销售有限公司发售。

2001 年公司在 Jever 的“biopin”销售基地建造了实验室，并在这里进行有关应用方面的基础研究。2003年在爱尔兰建立了一座植物黏合剂生产基地。

2005年通过DIN-EN-ISO9001：2000认证。2006年biopin 获得天然着色剂的第一个国际认证。
