SBM LIFE SCIENCE
in North America

Jim VanHandel
President of SBM Life Science Corp., North American Region
SBM Life Science Corp. North America holds an important position in the market as the innovator in Lawn & Garden. This is a responsibility we take very seriously. We also knew we had to quickly establish a vast company infrastructure to support this continued breakthrough innovation. In our first year of operation we established our new North American headquarters in Cary, NC. We have also built a fully functional ERP system. Additional accomplishments include the opening of our field research station in Illinois, the opening of a new chemistry lab in North Carolina, and the acquisition of a production facility in Texas. We are rapidly expanding to support the growth of our BioAdvanced™ Science-Based Solutions and NATRIA® brands. As a team, we are excited to continue to offer consumers the innovation that they have come to expect from the Blue Bottle and Bag.
