Orius' solutions for Cosmetic Plant-Based Ingredients
Discover how can Orius be a promising solution for Cosmetic Plant-Based Ingredients? Explore how Orius offers innovative solutions for the cosmetic industry by focusing on naturality, reliability, quality and environmental impact.
The Resurgence of Plant-Based Ingredients in Cosmetics
Throughout history, plants have been used for their beauty, nutritional, medicinal or cosmetic properties. While chemical alternatives have progressed significantly, today's consumers are looking for natural, transparent, and healthier options.
Thanks to a versatile production system, Orius offers a wide variety of plant-based ingredients, including flowering plants, leafy greens, roots, and mushrooms, exotic or rare plants, all produced with optimal quality.
Supply Chain Challenges
Supplying plant-based ingredients is not without challenges. Environmental factors such as heat waves or droughts, exacerbated by climate change, pose significant risks to existing supply chains. Adulteration issues or social factors concerns make supplier sourcing crucial.
Orius controls all key environmental factors — climate, nutrition, and light — ensuring optimal plant growth. We provide on-demand supply, year-round, with top hygiene, security, and worker conditions.
Reducing Environmental Impact
Minimizing resource use and environmental footprint is a major concern for the cosmetic industry.
Orius methods save up to 95-98% of water and fertilizer compared to conventional methods, and avoid the use of phytosanitary products. We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint, and we can deliver complete life-cycle assessments.
Stabilize botanical ingredients chemical composition
Nature's unpredictability can yield botanical ingredients of fluctuating quality, particularly in terms of active compound concentration. It can impact product quality, effectiveness, or cost.
We perfect cultivation recipes that can be reproduced, guaranteeing standardized quality year-round.
On top, Orius' expertise lies in understanding the metabolic pathways that enhance the chemical composition of plants. We can increase or eliminate specific active compounds as needed or enhance the olfactory concentration.
