Baltzer Science Publishers is a defunct Netherlands publisher of scientific journals which was established in 1980 as J. C. Baltzer AG by Christoph and Marianne Baltzer. The owners of J.C. Baltzer AG sold the company in 1994, and its new owners renamed the company as Baltzer Science Publishers BV. It was bought by Wolters Kluwer in 2001 and subsequently subsumed into the Springer brand when Kluwer sold Kluwer Academic Publishers to two private equity funds who shortly after merged it with BertelsmannSpringer to form Springer Science+Business Media.
