Comfort Zone Scientific Garden

Emerging from the vision of sustainable beauty, the new scientific garden, an open-air lab within the Davines Village in Parma Italy, is a dream come true for Comfort Zone’s founder and president, Davide Bollati.

Bollati has always had a strong belief that nature is more than a resource for natural ingredients: it is the essence of life for humans, an endless source of inspiration and knowledge, teaching us the meaning of beauty and interconnection every day.

Unwavering in this belief, Bollati has long dreamed of a botanical garden dedicated to scientific research and this led to its creation within the Davines Village – the home of sustainable beauty – that opened in 2018.

The garden celebrates the co-existence of science and nature and is home to an extensive range of over 6,000 plants, shrubs and fruit trees from all over the world, which inspire the R&D team to create cutting-edge, high-performing formulae.

Not only is the garden utilised to develop the haircare and skincare products for the Davines, Comfort Zone and Skin Regimenbrands, but also it acts as a unique space for people to study, work, gather and be free to relax.

In the modern world where nature is often taken for granted, the Scientific Garden at the Davines Village is a place where people are inspired to learn about sustainability, where beauty is appreciated and biodiversity is celebrated.
