Quality, Healthy, Clean, and Effective Agricosmetics.
In ORTOFFICINA farm on the hills of Bologna, we grow with bio-dynamic method and at zero-mile plants, shrubs and aromatic herbs that become ultra-performing complexes of essential oils, extracts and hydrolates of our formulations.
The bio-dynamic method is the purest and most effective type of cultivation: free of pesticides, herbicides, insecticides and synthetic fertilizers used in conventional agriculture, it respects the plant and the environment following 3 fundamental principles: keep plants healthy without using any chemical substances; keep fertile soil in cultivation using bio-dynamic preparations and cumulus; rely on the moon influence for proper sowing and harvesting and to obtain ingredients rich in active and nutritious elements.
Organic and Bio-dynamic.
Picked in their balsamic period, officinal herbs are distilled locally in steam current, and transformed into essential oils, hydrolates and extracts by traditional, natural methods and without the use of synthetic solvents.
Organic and bio-dynamic raw materials are combined with carefully selected natural ingredients, like pure oils, waxes, butters and emollient plants, and the purest and most sustainable active and functional ingredients. Aggressive and potentially harmful synthetic products are replaced by natural and more delicate alternatives.
Each product is formulated according to the principles of the most advanced green chemistry which guarantees a perfect balance between natural formula and professional performance.
