Officina Naturae – Organic Brand From Italy
History of Officina Naturae
Officina Naturae is an Italian company established in Rimini in 2004. Silvia Carlini and Pierluca Urbate, the founders, are also members of Fairtrade International. The two founders fulfilled their dream of establishing the company after gaining experience in the pharmaceutical industry: producing environmentally friendly cleaning products with sustainable production and distribution methods in terms of ethics and ecology.
Initially, Officina Naturae had only a “garage” headquarters. A garage full of products, dreams, and ideals but without a single customer! Officina Naturae began to be known on online forums, at organic consumer fairs. They were invited to organize workshops across Italy on “smart ecological” formulas.
In 2005, co-founder Pierluca “invented” Citric Acid and its many uses. The initial idea of using a simple ingredient as a solution for various family needs gave birth to Officina Naturae, from fabric softeners to detergents.
In 2010, Officina Naturae researched and produced “eco-designed” bottles, maximizing the ratio of content to container, made from recycled plastic. This environmentally friendly packaging design was also exhibited at the IED (European Design Institute) in Florence.
Since then, Officina Naturae has expanded its diverse product portfolio: From the Biricco children’s product line to collections for men,… always aiming for sustainability, with packaging made from high-quality recycled plastic, safe for health.
