We are happy to announce a new collaboration with Helios Gea and his “45 Degrees” beauty products.
The 45th parallel runs through Valle d’Istria and there starts the idea of using olives in a revolutionary way, giving life to natural cosmetics and beauty products.
Helios Gea has been using olive pomace since 2009 to create body lotions and creams in full harmony with nature and with great attention to sustainability and respect for the environment.
Green gold. Olive pomace.
After separating the olive oil from the fruit, a residue called komina, the green gold, is obtained. The olive pomace consists of the flesh tissue (skin – epicarp, pulp – mesocarp, 25-28% of vegetation water, 6-6.5% of olive oil) and woody core – endocarp, and olive leaves. Contains a high concentration of natural antioxidants of vitamin origin, antioxidants of non-vitamin origin and minerals.
“45 Degrees” has won numerous international awards thanks to the undisputed quality of the raw materials and the manufacturing process.
From our pure extra virgin olive oil to beauty products.
Bagolar brings another piece of Istria to Italy and Europe.
