The FOVAHM cosmetics workshop collaborated with Laboratoire Phytosphere Swiss Lab, part of the PhytoArk ecosystem, to produce its liquid soaps. This collaboration has highlighted natural ingredients such as lady’s mantle, used in the “fall-winter” and “spring-summer” products of the “L’Atelier des Merveilles” line.
This project made it possible to launch the new cosmetics manufacturing facility, which supplies the Martigny Boutique-Hotel and the foundation’s residents. The PhytoArk teams provided support in sizing the production equipment and taking the first steps in cosmetics manufacturing. These initial steps enabled the business to grow rapidly, with the launch of contract manufacturing for third parties.
Lady’s mantle was chosen to be included in the first line of cosmetics offered at the Martigny Boutique-Hotel under the brand name “L’Atelier des Merveilles.” This extract was developed and produced by Mediplant at the PhytoArk extraction facility. Commonly known as the “alchemists’ plant,” it was chosen for its beneficial properties for the skin, particularly its antioxidant and anti-aging effects.
The FOVAHM cosmetics workshop plays a key role in the final stage of the production process. The “L’atelier des Merveilles” products are a fine example of the synergies that exist among the companies at the Conthey technology park.
