Bioderma Atoderm Crème Ultra

Brand History and Philosophy

Bioderma is a renowned French dermo-cosmetic brand founded in 1977 by Jean-Noël Thorel, a pharmacist-biologist. The brand is built on the philosophy of "ecobiology," which views the skin as an ever-evolving ecosystem that interacts with its environment and must be treated according to its natural biology rather than just through external symptoms.

Manufacturing and Product Composition

The Atoderm Crème Ultra is primarily manufactured in France, specifically at the NAOS Les Laboratoires facilities located in Aix-en-Provence. This facility centralizes the development and production for the company's global supply, ensuring strict adherence to European dermatological standards. The product is formulated for normal to dry sensitive skin, utilizing niacinamide and omega fatty acids to strengthen the skin barrier.

Ownership and Global Presence

Bioderma is owned by NAOS, an independent French company founded by Thorel. NAOS also owns the Institut Esthederm and Etat Pur brands. Headquartered in Aix-en-Provence, France, NAOS remains one of the world's largest independent beauty and skincare companies, maintaining a presence in over 100 countries without being a subsidiary of a larger multinational conglomerate.
