Logo:
Three interconnecting circles of brilliant colors that means the three areas of PAT focus of IBS Caribe:
Analyzers, Instruments, Services
The brilliant colors were extracted from a special plant called locally “Malla” that was found in the Cambalache Forest in Barceloneta, Puerto Rico whose delicate hues of pink contrast with the powerful repellent of its thorns. When we were in search of colors for our logo, somebody said ‘go to nature, to find the best combinations’ and we found in nature the flower whose colors represent Innovations in Biosciences, Inc.
