History of the company
The group of companies GORO originated in 1999, when the Research Center for
Environmental Resources GORO was established. The enterprise was founded
by action group of specialists in the fields of business, biochemistry, botany,
thermodynamics, mechanics and electronics.
The basic technology of the enterprise is SFT, which was chosen as maximally
effective extraction technology of biologically active substances from plant
material.
The company employees developed, produced and put into operation extraction
equipment; hold the following range of work on:
- Research works on study the composition and benefits of plant materials
and extracts
- Development works on establishment of equipment with the best manufacturing
capabilities
- Works on processing of technological parameters of production for various
kinds of extracts
- Marketing research of domestic and foreign market
- Works on information collection and analysis of international experience
in the field of SFT
- Works on development, implementation and improvement of effective mechanisms
of successful enterprise operation, including qualified prompt service
Since 2000 SRC ER GORO actively and successfully works on the market of ingredients
for cosmetic products. In 2004 the entry to the market of food ingredients
was performed , also "GORO-Ingeneering" was founded (developing,
producing and delivery of Laboratory and production equipment). A number of
laboratory and production developments in the field of equipment was realized
and successfully used by GORO partners in Russia and CIS.
Thereby, GORO is the first Russian enterprise that mastered SFT in industrial
scale.
Since the foundation one of the main GORO task was the promotion of SFT in
Russia and particularly:
- Collection, processing and distribution of information on possibilities
and advantages of SFT in the field of various kinds of production
- Forming and activation of SFT market and SFT-products in Russia in industrial
and scientific fields
- Search and consolidation of stakeholders for common projects development
and realization (from the stage of laboratory research to commercial production)
- Initiation of administrative and financial support of SFT on regional
and federal state level.
The most active work in this direction was performed in 2003-2005. As a collaboration
result of GORO and state and scientific structures we have:
- Foundation of Supercritical fluids Section at the Council on the theoretical
foundations of chemical technologies of Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS)
- December 2003
- Successful holding of the first international scientific conferences
in Rostov-on-Don : " Supercritical fluid technologies: the innovative
capacity of Russia" (2004, 2005)
- Foundation of "Consortium of organizations in the field of supercritical
fluid technologies". Among the founders there were SRC ER GORO, GORO-Engineering
and Stella concern
- Launch by the Ministry of Education and Science the federal target program "Development
and implementation of supercritical fluid technologies " under the
federal scientific and technical program "Research and development on
priority directions of development of science and technique
- a number of awards at major exhibitions
In November 2005 a part of GORO functions (in the field of SFT implementation
into domestic economics and consolidation of state, scientific and commercial
structures) was transferred to the Consortium of organizations in the field
of supercritical fluid technologies.
Since 2006 GORO is focused on a researches and production of extraction of
plan materials, also on development, producing and selling of laboratory and
production equipment for SFT-extraction.
At that, GORO group of companies actively continues to participate in the SFT-implementation
process into economy of Russian Federation. In March 2007 investment group
GORO (incl. GORO group of companies, Stella concern, JSC commercial bank Stella-bank)
took the lead in a project "Activization of SFT implementation in Russian
Federation", within the bounds of which the company is ready to invest
