A committed company
Driven by its commitment to a more sustainable beauty industry, and involved in an eco-responsible approach for several years, Laboratoires BEA is constantly optimizing the environmental impact of its processes.
Laboratoires BEA has recently acquired state-of-the-art equipment for manufacturing waterless products. The company has invested in a new production unit dedicated to solid soaps and cosmetics, based on solid industrial expertise combined with advanced eco-production criteria, enabling it to offer naturally effective products, free from controversial products.
In 2021, Laboratoires BEA is taking its commitment to the environment a step further with the creation of the Natscore. This rating system will enable us to give preference to formulas with a lower environmental impact, for an eco-responsible way of consuming.
