The company’s history began in 1904 when Achille Sclavo discovered anti-anthrax serum and he founded the Tuscan Serotherapy and Vaccinogenic Institute in Siena. During the First World War, the Institute extended the production of serums and bacterial vaccines to an industrial level. In 1929 the Institute began the production of anti-diphtheria and anti-tetanus anatoxin and, later, of the smallpox vaccine.
