OUR WORLD

Davines World

Founded in Parma, Italy in 1983 by the Bollati Family, Davines Group started as a research laboratory, producing high-end products for renowned cosmetic companies worldwide.

After a decade of further developing our expertise, we began creating our own brands: Davines professional hair care products exclusively for salons, and in 1996 we launched [ comfort zone ] skin care for premier spas and beauty salons. Our skin care offer expanded in 2018 with the new Skin Regimen specifically targeting premature aging. The Group is now a B Corp, has a multicultural team from all over the world and has an international presence in more than 90 countries. In addition to the headquarter in Parma - at the Village - we have offices in New York, London, Paris, Mexico City, Deventer (Netherlands), and Hong Kong.

 
 

“BY CREATING BEAUTY SUSTAINABLY, WE ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES, OF THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH THEY LIVE & WORK, AND OF THE THINGS THEY LOVE.”

The Carta Etica

A collection of our shared ethics and company guidelines, created by all members of the group.

It allows the reflection of ethics in everyday life by contributing to the working wellness of everyone. First written in 2005 by a philosopher and Davines employees, it does not containrules or instructions, but rather proposals for desirable ethical behavior at work to obtain a better quality of life for all. The importance of sharing of a value system that guides and inspires all those who work in the company meant that we needed to focus on realigning our values.

2018 saw the creation of The Carta Etica's "New Blooming" which represents an evolution of what is now the company's ethical DNA.

We have rewritten our way of doing business, looking at business as a positive force capable of generating profit and at the same time creating a virtuous impact on people and the environment.

After the certification obtained in 2016, we decided to align our objectives with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's), defined in the UN Agenda 2030, projecting them into our corporate strategy. This gave us a goal for continuous improvement that is expressed in the activation of new projects, and in defining objectives and monitoring results that have been presented in our annual Sustainability Report.

At Davines every product is born from intuition and is processed with an artisan spirit using the most advanced cosmetic technologies.

The formulations favor the use of ingredients of natural origin, are generated with renewable electric energy and packaged minimizing the environmental impact, inspired by the ideal of Sustainable Beauty as an inseparable unity between Beauty and Good.
