在 1909 年创立之初，基立福只是巴塞罗那的一间小型家族式临床分析实验室，今天，它已成为血浆衍生药物和输血医学解决方案研发领域的全球引领者。
我们在卓越而独一无二的发展历程中，积累了科研专长，并且始终不忘服务患者和社会的初心。这一切要归功于我们公司的创始人 Josep Antoni Grifols i Roig 和他的两个儿子 Josep Antoni 和 Víctor，以及他们身后每一位志同道合的追随者们的远见卓识与坚持不懈。我们的价值观无不体现着这些品质，而每一位基立福人每天都在用自己的行动践行着这些价值观。

样品无菌保存的困难促使 Grifols i Roig 研发出四种不同型号的 Flebula 临床分析仪器，这是一种能够在无菌条件下提取血液样本的分析仪器。
第一次世界大战引起了国际上对输血科学的关注，在西班牙，Grifols i Roig 申请了 Flebula 输血仪器的专利，这是第一台用于间接输血的仪器。
Grifols i Roig 和他的两个儿子，血液学家 Josep Antoni Grifols i Lucas 及化学家、药剂师 Víctor Grifols i Lucas 创立了基立福实验室 (Laboratorios Grifols) ，开创了一个致力于临床分析和冻干血浆制备事业的新时代。
在 Víctor Grifols i Lucas 的创新领导下，冻干作为一种改进血浆保存的技术得以实现。在这样的背景下，他成立了西班牙第一家私人血液和血浆库：基立福实验室血库 (the Hemobanco of Laboratorios Grifols)。
Víctor Grifols i Lucas 负责创新，Josep Antoni Grifols i Lucas 负责基立福的科学研究。世界上首次将单采血浆技术系统性地运用于人体的研究结果发布在英国医学杂志 (British Medical Journal) 上，这项由 Josep Antoni 领导的研究有 320 名献浆者参与，其研究结果于第四届国际输血医学大会上发表。
