Swiss Stem Cells Biotech (SSCB) is a private Swiss biobank founded in 2005 by a group of researchers and doctors from the Cardiocentro Ticino in Lugano, pioneers in the field of regenerative medicine. Since the first stem cell transplant in 2004, it has been clear that these cells represent one of the most valuable resources for the future of medicine. To date, more than 4,000,000 units of cord blood have been cryopreserved.
Today, SSCB, part of the CellSolutions group, has transformed the simple idea of “stem cell preservation” into an exclusive boutique biobank concept.
We do not limit ourselves to storing biological samples: we offer a tailored service, customized for each family and client, carefully following every phase – from collection in the delivery room or operating room, to processing in our certified laboratories in Switzerland, up to long-term cryopreservation.
This philosophy distinguishes us from traditional biobanks: each sample is managed as a unique and irreplaceable asset, with the same care and precision with which a tailor preserves and creates a custom-made suit.
In this way, SSCB guarantees not only safety, traceability, and certified Swiss quality, but also a human and personalized approach, designed for parents, children, and all clients who choose to preserve their biological heritage for advanced cellular therapies of the future. The CellSolutions group includes a network of over 20 clinics distributed throughout Switzerland and SSCB collaborates with over 2,000 facilities including hospitals, medical centers, and related entities both in Switzerland and abroad.
Our mission is to open new frontiers through the collection, processing, and preservation of stem cells derived from umbilical cord blood, cord and placental tissue, adipose tissue, and mononuclear cells from peripheral blood, for future use.
We carry out our work following the highest quality standards in the world, which ensure proper preservation of samples and the possibility of using them in any transplant center worldwide. We offer our clients a highly specialized, safe, efficient, and cutting-edge service.
We guarantee complete control of all cryopreservation processes, from laboratory processing to cryopreservation in our tanks. This way it is.
Additionally, we ensure that any biological material – cord blood, tissues, or cells – is transferred directly from the delivery or operating room to our laboratories in Switzerland, where it is processed without any relocation abroad.
This guarantees maximum quality, traceability, and safety at every stage and allows you to check the status of the sample at any time.
For over 20 years, SSCB – Swiss Stem Cells Biotech has been one of the first private biobanks in Switzerland to offer the possibility of storing umbilical cord blood and tissue, protecting the future of thousands of families.
We have never limited ourselves to storing cells: we have always safeguarded them, accompanied them, made them accessible, and – when necessary – actually used them.
Our vision is clear:
to offer every person – from newborns to adults – secure, controlled, and personalized access to regenerative medicine.
Today, over 4 million cellular samples are privately stored worldwide.
SSCB is one of the historical and most reliable players in stem cell cryopreservation, with an approach that combines clinical expertise, biotech quality, and human attention.
We are among the European leaders in the processing and cryopreservation of cells and tissues in GMP-certified environments, including:
Unlike other operators that allocate resources to massive advertising campaigns, SSCB invests its capital in what really matters: scientific research, development of new therapies, advanced technologies, and sample safety.
We have chosen to create real value, not artificial visibility.
We are a “boutique” biobank of excellence in Switzerland, with GMP standards, complete traceability of samples, and a direct relationship with families and doctors.
Each individual sample is followed, monitored, and ready for use when needed, ensuring secure and immediate access to therapies in centers of excellence.
Our team, together with the CellSolutions group, has supported families and children in real clinical situations, offering personalized consultations, identifying compatible therapies, and facilitating access to care in regenerative medicine facilities.
Because cells preserved with SSCB can truly make a difference.
SSCB is also the biotech heart of the group: we develop ATMP products, produce for third parties in certified GMP environments, and participate in innovative regenerative medicine projects in Switzerland and Europe alongside clinics and scientific partners.
The CellSolutions group includes over 20 clinics in Switzerland and an international network of research institutes, clinics, and specialists, creating a complete ecosystem where science, care, and innovation work together.
We do not define ourselves as “the largest.”
We prefer to be among the most serious, reliable, and committed to the advancement of regenerative medicine.
Because it does not matter how many samples you have, but what you can do with them when it really matters.
Preserving cells with SSCB today means accessing innovative treatments tomorrow that are changing medicine.
SSCB works every day to make this possible, ethically, safely, and concretely, as the reference biobank in Switzerland for the cryopreservation of stem cells.
