Avène

Avène a French dermatological laboratory

The Avène dermatological laboratory is part of the Pierre Fabre group, whose name comes from the founder. Avène fights for the health of sensitive skin. A date that should not be forgotten in the history of the laboratory, the year 1990 because it is the birth of the Dermatological Laboratories of Avène. A new thermal spa opens its doors, thus boosting scientific hydrotherapy. The first products of the Eau Thermale Avène brand are manufactured at the production unit just established on the site of La Source in Avène; in order to avoid the transport of thermal water and thus to preserve its properties in each product formulation.

A powerful natural active ingredient since the discovery of the Source in 1736, the notoriety of Avène Thermal Spring Water has been built on its effectiveness in dermatology . The Avène impluvium is located in the heart of the Haut-Languedoc regional natural park. A unique and unspoiled nature where each drop of rain travels for more than 50 years to enrich itself in precious elements and finally become Avène Thermal Spring Water. Since then, more than 150 fundamental and clinical studies have been carried out and nearly 50 publications in the scientific and international press bear witness to its beneficial properties for sensitive, intolerant or allergic skin.

The benefits of this water:

• Soothing
• Softener
• Anti-irritation

The commitments of the Avène laboratory

Committed to the health of sensitive skin, the brand seeks to advance knowledge in dermatology and provide solutions to improve the quality of life of sensitive skin. By combining efforts with healthcare professionals, Avène is making progress in this area.

When efficiency rhymes with safety , this laboratory is there to improve your quality of life, because sensitive, allergic or intolerant skin should not have an impact on it. Their priority is therefore to offer effective, safe and well-tolerated dermo-cosmetic care. Evaluations, tests and clinical studies are carried out under dermatological control.

Committed to preserving the Avène les Bains site , because it is in the heart of the Haut Languedoc regional natural park, in the south of France, that Avène thermal water is hidden. We must ensure the durability and purity of this water so that it is irreproachable, and to continue to take care of the most sensitive skin as well as the nature that surrounds us.

A strong commitment to the marine ecosystem since 2010, this dermatological laboratory makes a positive contribution to issues relating to the preservation of the oceans. Three years later, the solar range is reformulated to reduce their impact on the marine environment. Then was born the association between Avène and Pure Project for the restoration of corals.

Responsible development and production, environmental impact is a process of continuous improvement for formulas and packaging at Avène. The Avène production unit manufactures, conditions and controls the brand's products in France. Avène Thermal Spring Water is drawn directly from the source and transported to the Production Unit. It then retains all its properties which it offers intact to all those who use Eau Thermale Avène treatments.
