All KORRES Products Are Sourced Ethically in Greece
In the Itea Settlement of Rodopi, most types of cultivatable aromatic & medicinal plants grow naturally, whilst the majorityof the villagers are engaged in agriculture.
Soil Lab
George Ereliadis has been involved in the aromatic & medicinal plants farming since the early 70's, applying practices of organic farming.
The organic calendula flowers are hand picked from April to October and transferred to the KORRES Extraction Laboratory.
Extraction Lab
From the picturesque Arachamites village straight to the KORRES Extraction Lab where the naturally dried Castanea leaves are processed into a high quality potent cosmetic raw material. They are stored in stable humidity and temperature conditions, while undergoing strict controls to ensure specific quality parameters, such as the absence of pests and plant diseases. The extraction takes place at the environmentally-friendly, certified KORRES Extraction Facility. Using the maceration method and 100% natural, skin-friendly solvents, we ensure that the quality of our potent natural actives is sustained.
The flower’s red stigmas are a rich source of superior-antioxidant crocins. We produce an extract, featuring a bright orange color and a uniquely fresh scent. Our Golden Krocus formula contains literally day-fresh Greek Saffron extract to maintain its maximum antioxidant potency.
