About

Okos Diagnostics was oficially founded in Amsterdam in February 2022 by
Sander Julian Brus a biotech enthusiast and Fernando Barrios a former industrial designer.

After the COVID 19 pandemic health emergency, single use test kits are in great demand and causing large numbers of polluting waste. About 100 billion plastic latteral flow assays are produced yearly because of the increasing demand which generates a plastic crisis already in the middle of a plastic pollution problem.

 

Trying to aim the medical waste problem Okos seeks to be the world leading biodegradable LFA solution by 2030.
