Tradition meets innovation – sustainable natural cosmetics from the Black Forest
For over 60 years, the natural cosmetics brand ANNEMARIE BÖRLIND – Natural Beauty has combined the values of ethical business with excellent product quality. These values are also shared by the derma cosmetics brand DADO SENS DERMACOSMETICS.
Both the promotion of fair trade and various environmental projects are important to the Börlind company – as part of its commitment to responsibility.
The company has always paid great attention to innovative research – with a special appreciation of nature as an important fundamental element of the corporate philosophy. Börlind specifically and carefully considers where scarce natural raw materials can be replaced by resource-saving, replicating processes in order to ensure the excessive use of natural substances without compromising on quality. This research represents a valuable contribution to the future of cosmetics.
Naturally and confidently, Börlind represents its values along the entire production chain, ensuring ecologically and ethically sound processing as well as fair working conditions, fair wages and the exclusion of child labor. All products are manufactured at the company site in Calw: “Made in the Black Forest”. The workforce consists of over 200 employees – over 70% of whom are women. And as the company in the Black Forest already only uses green electricity, the focus is strongly on continuously increasing energy and resource efficiency.
Its worldwide voluntary commitment to sustainability has earned Börlind numerous awards over the past decades. In order to emphasize its comprehensive perspective, the company decided early on to go beyond product certifications and opt for an overall assessment using the CSE sustainability standard.
