Areas of Expertise
Biotechnology is a fast-growing field with huge potential, and our two core businesses –protein biotherapeutics (CSL Behring) and influenza vaccines and other biologics (Seqirus) – are already among its global leaders.
Rare & Serious Diseases
We are committed to saving lives and improving the quality of life for people with rare and serious diseases worldwide. This commitment is reflected in our support of programs and activities for people with deficient or malfunctioning blood proteins that cause diseases like bleeding disorders, primary immune deficiencies and Alpha1-proteinase inhibitor deficiencies.
A continual focus on innovation in new products, improved products and manufacturing know-how is the key to future growth.
