In today’s market, consumers place great importance on the concept of naturalness when making purchasing decisions.

The rising trend of natural cosmetics is projected to generate a staggering global turnover of £25 billion by 2025. This growing demand is a direct response to the increasing preference for cosmetic and personal care products formulated with natural ingredients.

In this vibrant landscape, the fragrance industry has also embraced the allure of nature. We witness a remarkable surge in fragrances proudly claiming their natural roots, with compositions enriched with an abundance of natural ingredients. Additionally, refill formats have gained popularity, providing sustainable alternatives that reduce waste.

In 2015, the United Nations introduced the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2030, prompting a paradigm shift in sustainability across various sectors. Fragrance companies worldwide are now aligning their practices with these goals, striving to offer exceptional products that prioritize both effectiveness and environmental responsibility.

Within the fragrance industry, regulatory bodies like the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) and the Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 of the European Parliament and Council play a crucial role. These institutions have established comprehensive guidelines, limitations, and prohibitions to ensure the safety of consumers. By basing their regulations on scientific evidence and incorporating consumer feedback, they maintain a diligent monitoring system that undergoes continuous evaluation and updates.

At Bordas, we recognise the significance of this legislative framework. We actively embrace these regulations, understanding that they are essential to consumer well-being. Our commitment to compliance and safety sets us apart as a trusted provider of fragrance products.
