With 25 years of expertise in the spa and wellness industry, the brand combines a deep heritage with a commitment to constant innovation.
SCIENCE, PERFORMANCE & SUSTAINABILITY
“We need to rewrite the progress. A product has to be a part of the solution, instead of part of the problem: this means to embrace regeneration and revolutionize the way we formulate, select ingredients, and design our product ranges.” - Dr. Davide Bollati, Davines Group Chairman
Over 60 scientists, including chemists, biologists and dermatologists, supported by a multidisciplinary Scientific Committee and various Universities, work with our R&D to provide clean, result-driven formulas, highly concentrated in natural-origin and high-tech ingredients. In our Scientific Garden, an open-air lab at the Davines Village, we study the living plants to discover botanical molecules for our innovations.
We chose not to use silicones, animal derivatives, mineral oil, artificial colorants, SLS. On a journey to remove all ethoxylates and acrylates, still present in a few formulas. Suitable for Vegans. Clinically proven efficacy. Dermatologically tested.
Our commitment is to guarantee efficacy and safety, choosing high-quality ingredients which respect the skin and the planet. Our lines are made in Italy with renewable resources. We choose recyclable packaging, fully CO2 compensated thanks to EthioTrees, a reforestation initiative in Ethiopia.

B Corp ompanies must undergo a sustainability audit every three years, and achieve a minimum of 80 points to maintain their B Corp status.

REGENERATIVE AGRICULTURE
Regenerative organic farming has the potential to sequester carbon, mitigate climate change, promote biodiversity, and protect our soil, air, and water. In 2021, the Davines Group partnered with Rodale Institute to establish the first European Regenerative Organic Center (EROC), focused on researching regenerative organic agriculture, and educating local farmers.
The European Regenerative Organic Center encompasses a 15-hectare site by our carbon-neutral Comfort Zone Village campus focusing its scientific research and education on small - to mid-size European farms growing specialty crops for food, nutrition, and beauty.
5 ingredients from regenerative farming are used in our formulas including Hydramemory, Sublime Skin, and Sacred Nature.
PLASTIC BANK
The linear economy model based on the “take, use and discard” paradigm is no longer sustainable: we must act now to reverse the paradigm, promoting a regenerative vision that allows us to give back more than we consume." ~ Davide Bollati, Davines Group Chairman
Thanks to its partnership with Plastic Bank, every product sold by Davines Group incentivizes the collection of an equivalent amount of plastic waste from the environment in Indonesia, the Philippines, Brazil, and Thailand. In concept, if every company in the world collected “their” plastic, there would be no more plastic dispersed into the environment. Supporting the removal of plastic from the environment is only one part of the Davines Group broader sustainability vision. It is equally committed to minimizing reliance on virgin fossil-based plastic in packaging. In 2023 alone, 55.7% of the total plastic packaging material purchased by Davines Group brands was recycled, bio-based, or mass-balance plastic.
