Our mission is to create a "good life" for all, doing our best for the world, guided by ethics and inspired by beauty, offering high-quality products in which sustainability and science come together. This best represents the Davines Group, a professional cosmetics company made in Italy, to which the Davines and Comfort Zone brands belong. B Corp since 2016 and Benefit Corporation since 2019, we have always encouraged a business model capable of generating not only profit but also a positive impact on the people, environment, and communities in which it operates. This led us in 2018 to become a Carbon Neutral Company, and today to commit ourselves to achieving Zero Net Emissions by 2030. We actively work on Circularity and Regeneration, not only of our packaging, ever lighter, made with recycled materials and according to the eco-design principles, but also of soils and ecosystems, promoting research and the use of regenerative farming practices. Finally, guided by the value of interdependence, we are committed to spreading the B Corp culture among our partners and stakeholders, supporting them in the certification so that more and more private sector players will join in the path towards a future of sustainability.
