3 Bio-based ingredients from pure Finnish nature Natural ingredients have been used in skin care for centuries. Nowadays, they are again becoming more prevalent in cosmetic formulations due to consumer concerns about synthetic ingredients and chemical substances. Finnish bio-based companies have proven excellence in wood and plant extracts, resin formulations and wood-based polymeric oils. University level scientific research, intensive cooperation with research institutes and comprehensive R&D provide a strong foundation for the Finnish know-how in utilizing organic raw materials. Finland s pure nature including berries, plants and trees presents a rich source of high-quality extracts and ingredients that can be used as organic raw materials in diverse cosmetic and healthcare products. Their production does not require chemicals, and most extracts are eco-certified. Clean Finnish water is used throughout the process.
