The French manufacturer of natural cosmetic active ingredients, which until now was a limited company with a board of directors, has become a limited company with a management board and a supervisory board, effective January 1st, 2023.
Independence raised as a corporate value
For Jean Paufique, founder of Silab in 1984, the goal is to allow the company to maintain its independence, which considered the key factor of its success.
“This independence gives Silab a large freedom of decision.
Jean Paufique, founder and CEO, decided to keep the current model of the company and is entrusting the operational management to the five members of the former management committee.
Silab further commits to its CSR plan with a higher EcoVadis score, yet, due to an increase in the strict rating system of EvoVadis, Silab will fall one point short of being declared platinum status.
The French company specializing in the engineering of natural active ingredients for cosmetics and dermo-cosmetics brands around the world, recently opened a new biotechnology laboratory, which is more ergonomic and better sized to meet increasing global demand.
One year after commissioning a second industrial line that quadrupled the production capacity of its yeasts, microalgae, and bacteria, Silab is now dedicating a new and more spacious space to its biotechnology research laboratory,.
