Algovital

What they make

According to their website, Algovital is a French manufacturer of aromatherapy products and natural cosmetics based in Saint-Pierre-de-Vassols, in the Vaucluse region at the foot of Mont-Ventoux. The company traces its origins to 1980, when pharmacists and health specialists linked to a clinic in Cannes founded the Laboratoire Algovital, and the site states over 40 years of activity. In 2012 the company opened its Mormoiron laboratories, alongside a public workshop-boutique, and began cultivating previously fallow land for its own raw materials. In 2020 it created a new, technologically advanced production site in Saint-Pierre-de-Vassols itself. The range includes organic essential oils obtained by steam distillation or cold pressing, unrefined cold-pressed vegetable oils, floral waters, essential-oil diffusers and diffusion blends, and natural cosmetics such as facial serums, micellar water, toning lotion, cleansing foam, body creams, gels and massage oils. The company states Ecocert organic engagement since 2011, French AB organic-agriculture certification (FR-BIO-01), and Cosmébio's COSMO NATURAL and COSMO ORGANIC labels, and sells via its own site and the Cosmétic Provence platform.
