SPECIALIZATIONS:
The Production
One of Farmen’s strongest points is the
ability to manage the entire production chain
within the company: from the initial concept
to the selection of raw materials and active
ingredients right up to production, delivery
and education. Farmen guarantees the
quality and reliability of its products through
a meticulous procedure that controls of
every step of the process. They apply tests
so stringent that no more than around
100 formulas are approved every year -
out of the approximately 1000 formulas
evaluated. This level of control over the
production phases is especially important
when producing for private label where the
manufacturer is responsible for the quality
and reliability of the product.
Committed to Values
Farmen is not new to embrace values such
as ‘respect for environment’, ‘safety at work’,
‘customer care’ and awareness that ‘profit
and responsibility’ cannot be separated.
Farmen has decided to go beyond this
mission statement, formalizing its values and
objectives with the project: “The sustainable
Colors of beauty”, a social responsibility
strategy that aims at promoting a new kind
of beauty, closer to the environment and the
people. The first result of this commitment
was the formalisation of the ‘Charter of
values and commitments’ which was born
as an evolving document and becomes
richer through dialogue with the firm’s
stakeholders.
With the aim to guarantee the maximum
possible quality of its products, Farmen has
developed a sustainable supply policy on
the raw materials based on environmental
and human rights protection. On top of that,
since 2018, Farmen has asked its suppliers
of the main ingredients respect this policy.
Furthermore the company provides support
and assistance in training before and after
sales to ensure that products are 100% safe
for humans and for the environment, thank
to thousands of analysis carried out each
year by quality control at R&D laboratories.
Efficiency
Technology plays a fundamental part in the
production phase. One example of many is
the automated system for bleach production
in a controlled microclimate that Farmen
has installed. This climate control system
operates within the factory - over 20,000
sqm - monitoring the temperature and
hydrometry and reducing polluting agents.
The entire production cycle, with a capacity
of around 100,000 item of product per day,
is monitored from start to finish to ensure
complete quality for every single product.
