COSMETIC VALLEY invites you to discover the EXINNOV industrial site in Saint Jean d'Illac near Bordeaux, dedicated to plant extraction since 2021.

EXINNOV works from the catalog or on a contract basis on a wide range of plant extracts, focused on plants recognized for their health properties, with eco-responsible extraction processes, with water or with bio-sourced solvents in order to obtain purified molecules, mainly for the fields of cosmetics, parapharmacy and nutraceuticals.

A hydrogenator completes the production tool for the manufacture of vegetable butters, hydrogenated oils and solid cosmetics, as well as a drying tower.

EXINNOV has internal analysis and R&D laboratories and pilot stations.

The site is Ecocert, Cosmos and Iso 22000 certified.

So come on,

• Take the time to discover the expertise, tools and services
• Share our interests and development partnerships.
