Useful and sensible dermo-cosmetics that make a real difference
Preserving the natural balance
For 60 years, the brands of the Pierre Fabre Group have pooled their scientific expertise and their knowledge of nature to create dermo-cosmetics that are as concerned with the effectiveness and safety of their products as they are with your well-being. Our ambition? To design products that respect the natural balance of your skin, , whatever their nature and their needs.
Focusing on the useful and the essential
We select only the ingredients necessary for your skin’s needs, and in the just the right amounts. Based on the principle of "only what is needed", our Conscious Care formulas are designed and developed without unwanted substances.
Prioritising the environment and sustainable consumption
Since 2019, 100% of our new product developments are eco-socially designed. By 2023, 50% of our entire product catalogue will be.
Reducing our environmental impact through packaging will contribute to the fight against global warming. Thus, by 2025, 100% of our packaging will be produced from recycled materials that are recyclable, bio-sourced or compostable at home. Ten percent of our product catalogue will be available in a reusable format (bulk and eco-refills).
BEING CONSCIOUS CARE
A group of brands united around the same mission: to better respond to the challenges of our society
A constant concern for transparency
By 2022, all our products will be rated according to the Green Impact Index, designed by Green Mission Pierre Fabre. The Green Impact Index summarises the environmental and societal impacts of a cosmetic product as A, B, C or D. To participate in Conscious Care, our products must have a score of A or B. The Green Impact Index aims to be reliable, transparent and useful, to help us develop products that are more respectful of the planet and to enable everyone to make the best choices.
20 evaluation criteria
Such as the biodegradability and naturalness of the formula, carbon footprint, water consumption, organic farming, official certifications, CSR commitments... calculated up to the time our finished products leave our factory in France.
Committed to more naturalness and green innovation
Together, we are working every day to achieve greater naturalness in our formulations. Today, 89% of our active ingredients are already developed from organic plants or plants without any phytosanitary treatment. By 2025, all our new formulas (excluding sun protection) will be designed with more than 90% natural ingredients, compared to 85% already today in several categories.
Committed to local production and sustainable sourcing
With 97% of our products manufactured in France, we favour short supply chains, like for the Avène Thermal Water Spray: the thermal water is taken directly from the source and packaged in sterile barriers at the Avène production plant. In addition, we support our supply chains in their efforts to achieve sustainable production methods.
BEING CONSCIOUS CARE
A humanist movement, inspired by our founder Pierre Fabre, created for the well-being of all
Always caring about the quality of life of our customers...
Every day we work for the care and quality of life of our customers, including those with particular skin needs. We collaborate daily with 30 patient organisations on new products, services or digital applications worldwide, in oncology or dermatology and the provision of suitable skincare. Every year, we welcome nearly 3,000 people to the Avène Hydrotherapy Centre for the treatment of dermatological pathologies, using the same thermal spring water that we use in our skincare products. In addition to their treatment, we ensure that we support them on a daily basis through skin health education workshops, moments of exchange and sharing.
...as well as the common good and access to care for all
For us, the Laboratoires Pierre Fabre brands, each time we take care of one person, we contribute to making the world a better place.
