Case summary

An interactive virtual twin of Certest Biotec's facilities that lets you tour its biotechnology plant from anywhere in the world.

Certest Biotec is one of the fastest-growing biotechnology companies in Europe, headquartered in the Río Gállego II industrial estate in Zaragoza. In recent years it has undergone a deep industrial transformation: new buildings, new factory lines and new research centres. To showcase this growth and make its facilities accessible to international clients, partners and investors, Certest has developed the virtual twin of its biotechnology plant: an interactive 3D model that lets you tour the 25,000 square metres of facilities from anywhere in the world, with no travel and no access restrictions.

01 The challenge

Bringing a biotechnology plant to the world.

Certest, in the midst of its European growth phase, faced a challenge shared by many expanding industrial companies: how to show international clients, partners and investors the size, complexity and quality of its facilities without depending on the physical visit. A biotechnology plant also adds specific biosecurity, confidentiality and controlled-access restrictions, which multiply the operational friction of every sales visit. The challenge was to design a digital tool that would allow the plant to be toured in detail from any device, showcase the company's years of transformation and reduce the commercial cost of every visit without losing the demonstrative power of the industrial product.

02 The solution

Showing the plant interactively without depending on the physical visit.

The solution is the virtual twin of all of Certest's facilities, an interactive 3D model that recreates in detail the nine buildings, the industrial lines, the laboratories and the complementary facilities of the headquarters. The tour is navigated like an interactive infographic with points of interest that explain the specific processes, areas and capabilities of each space, making it the visual reference piece for sales presentations, partner meetings and corporate showcases. Its strategic value doesn't end with the modelling: the information and data are managed through a customised CMS that allows them to be updated in real time, so the twin evolves with the company itself and incorporates each new line, building or capability without redoing the model.

Key learnings

What this case teaches the sector.

01

El gemelo virtual reduce el coste comercial de cada visita a planta.

En industria, las visitas comerciales a fábrica son un activo, pero también una fricción operativa: agendas, desplazamientos, restricciones de acceso. Un gemelo digital que el comercial enseña desde su tablet en cualquier reunión consigue +40% de ahorro de tiempo en la explicación de procesos sin perder fuerza demostrativa.

02

La biotecnología tiene barreras de acceso que la digitalización supera.

En sectores con bioseguridad, confidencialidad y entornos críticos, no todas las visitas físicas son posibles. Un gemelo virtual permite mostrar la planta a perfiles internacionales o restringidos sin comprometer los protocolos de acceso, abriendo la presentación del producto industrial a audiencias que antes quedaban fuera del alcance comercial.

03

Un gemelo digital actualizable es un activo, no una foto fija.

Las plantas industriales en crecimiento cambian cada año: nuevas líneas, nuevos edificios, nuevas capacidades. Diseñar el gemelo con un CMS personalizado de actualización en tiempo real convierte la inversión inicial en un producto vivo que evoluciona con la compañía, sin necesidad de rehacer el modelo cada vez.

04

El crecimiento industrial necesita visualizarse para entenderse.

Una memoria anual o un dosier corporativo no transmiten la magnitud de 25.000 metros cuadrados repartidos en nueve edificios. Un recorrido virtual sí. Cuando una compañía ha invertido en transformación, mostrarla en formato interactivo multiplica la percepción de su madurez industrial y refuerza el posicionamiento ante inversores.
