StarSEQ – German lab. German data. Independent and transparent.
StarSEQ is a privately run biotechnology company built on quality, transparency, and data sovereignty—anchored in Germany.
All laboratory work is carried out exclusively in our own lab in Mainz, Germany. From sample handling to wet-lab processing and quality control, your projects stay in-house and under German oversight.
Just as important: your data stays in Germany. We host project data in Germany and keep it under German/EU jurisdiction. This means your customer data is not routed to third parties outside Europe and remains under a clear legal framework. If it is not possible to perform bioinformatic analyses locally, we will discuss this with you. Some analyses must be performed on cloud computers in the EU or USA under certain conditions.
To ensure true independence and avoid conflicts of interest, StarSEQ is not commercially affiliated with state-influenced or subsidy-driven providers from Asia. While some market participants highlight a local footprint, our operational model is straightforward: the work is done in Mainz, and the data is stored in Germany.
We also take responsibility for the ecosystem we operate in: we pay fair wages, pay our taxes in Germany, and reinvest our profits locally—supporting skilled jobs, long-term expertise, and sustainable capacity at our Mainz site.
StarSEQ aims to offer a complete service in the analysis of genetic material. Our main priorities are our orientation towards our customers and our careful advisory service. Starting in 2008 as a company with an extraordinary affordable DNA sequencing service we have expanded our service covering next generation sequencing, bioinformatics, genotyping, extensive industrial services, animal healthcare and personal genomics. We have important clients throughout 40 countries worldwide, among them giants of the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. It is our strong belief that our service can add value to your budget. We promise to you high-quality standards, ensured by our highly motivated scientific team which has more than 25 years experience in DNA sequencing and genome analysis.
