Behind the scenes of the laboratory

About us

Phytema™ Laboratoires, established 20 years ago at a site between the Alps and the Lac du Bourget, was born of a meeting between a group of naturopathic formulators working on organic cosmetics, and a team of buyers from the medical industry.

The company's research and development and production teams take inspiration from this haven of greenery to devise and produce innovative and environmentally friendly products.

Each time you use our products, experience the intense pleasure of a true sensory voyage.

Our inspiration

We are convinced that technology and nature can happily go hand in hand. We believe that we must seek a wide range of active ingredients in the diversity of the natural world, so as to obtain finished products that offer optimal beneficial effects with minimal impact on the ecosystem and our health.

Phytema™ products therefore employ highly technical formulations, while using natural resources wherever possible.

It is unrealistic to believe that a single natural active ingredient can be effective for all cosmetics applications and, indeed, it is harmful to the environment to overuse any single one of its resources.

CERTIFIED AS ORGANIC BY COSMÉBIO

Our products do not contain parabens, sulphates, mineral oils, silicones and quaternary ammonium.
