2000: Formulation Lab & Greek Yoghurt
As it was impossible to find the natural formulas we were dreaming of, we created our own Formulation Lab to avoid parabens, silicones, mineral oil, propylene glycol and many more chemicals, at a time when this approach was extremely rare.
The first product created in the KORRES Formulation Lab was our Greek Yoghurt Cooling Gel!
The idea apparently came from the Greek tradition of comforting sunburn and sun-stressed skin with Yoghurt. But going into the lab with real edible Yoghurt was a disaster! It took 3 years of meticulous and ground-breaking formulation work to stabilize edible Yoghurt with all its amazing benefits in a skincare formula, for the first time ever globally! Our Greek Yoghurt Cooling Gel finally launched in 2003. Our grandmothers were honoured! And the Formulation Lab was off to an incredible journey!
2009: Extraction Lab
In our early years in the business, we were shocked to discover that we were not able to utilize the amazing Greek herbs in our formulations because there were no extraction-processing units in Greece!
We would have to export the herbs and then import the herbal extracts. So we set our minds on developing our own exemplary Extraction Lab & Facility, in-house.
We partnered with the National & Kapodistrian University of Athens, Department of Pharmacy, Section of Pharmacognosy & Natural Products Chemistry, to design a fully green, clean, and zero-waste Extraction Lab. We only use natural solvents and processing techniques that help maintain the integrity of all precious active ingredients of our extracts and oils. After the extraction, all solid naturally-processed waste ends back into the farmers to be used as fertilizer. A Full Circle inside the bigger Circle!
2004: Molecular Lab
Primary Research is in our DNA. It all started with the homeopathic remedies in our pharmacy.
Today, KORRES is a proud protagonist in primary research around natural ingredients and actives in the EU, having contributed to major new discoveries.
Our Molecular Lab scientists partner with the highest-profile academic and research institutes in dedicated consortiums to deliver thorough research goals. The basic idea is to discover the most powerful ingredients in nature and utilize them for common good.
A milestone initiative that pushed the frontiers of knowledge of natural products, has been a global 4-year research study of over 3,600 natural extracts for their antioxidant, anti-aging and sun protection properties. As a result of dedication to primary research, KORRES has introduced 7 new ingredients in the WINCI, the global INCI directory for cosmetics! Our Black Pine and White Pine extracts are two of these ingredients, delivering amazing, visible benefits.
