CORPORATE PHILOSOPHY
QUALITY AND
TRANSPARENCY
We want to create a new awareness around high-quality cosmetics and feel strongly that transparency is essential for doing so. In this connection, we produce cosmetic products according to GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice, ISO 22716) and quality management system ISO 9001:2015, ensuring the highest transparency and quality. All of our brands and their products carry various certificates and have received numerous awards.
HEALTH
AND SAFETY
Our cosmetics bring us very close to you. Skin compatibility, safety and quality are therefore our highest concerns. Our scientists and independent dermatologists constantly screen all raw materials, do extensive testing for tolerability and carefully monitor detailed effectiveness studies. It is our top priority to ensure that your cosmetic products pose no risk to health or the environment. To that end, each ingredient used in one of our products is tested and included in the product’s safety analysis.
Our Projects
COMMITMENT TO THE WELL-BEING OF THE SOUL
71,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. This makes it the most common cancer among women. We stand for true beauty. For us, however, this also means being committed to doing good and giving a bit of true well-being to women who are not well due to breast cancer. Therefore, it is a matter of the heart for us to support the breast center in the Klinikum Mittelbaden in Baden-Baden with BIODROGA and to support the mission of BIODROGA & APOTHEKER DR. SCHELLER we support the mission of “PINK! Active against Breast Cancer” and to sponsor the PINK Digital Congress.
COMMITMENT for Nature
COMMITMENT TO ANIMALS
“According to EU Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009, animal testing for cosmetic products is prohibited in the EU. But that’s not enough for us – since our founding, we have already been producing in Germany without exception and refrain from animal testing. For us at the Baden-Baden Cosmetics Group, it is a matter of the heart to support our conviction for premium cosmetics without animal testing through practical deeds. That is why we are an official sponsor of the Rastatt Animal Welfare Association and thus of the association’s own animal shelter in Rastatt.
