Phytomer is a cosmetics house based in Saint-Malo, Brittany (France), dedicated to marine cosmetics since its founding in 1972 by Jean Gedouin. This family-owned company is a pioneer in marine biotechnology, cultivating microalgae and marine phytoplankton in its own laboratories to produce exclusive active ingredients—such as OLIGOMER® and various marine EPS sugars—without the need for continuous direct exploitation of the ocean.

With over 50 years of experience, Phytomer now operates in more than 80 countries and approximately 10,000 spas and clinics worldwide, and played a role in founding the International Spa Association (ISPA) in the United States. Approximately 80% of its active ingredients are sustainably sourced from the coast of Brittany—one of Europe’s regions with the richest marine biodiversity—adhering to strict harvesting standards within the NATURA 2000 protected zone.

Phytomer’s commitment to sustainability has been recognized with EcoVadis Platinum certification (2025), placing it in the top 1% of companies globally for social and environmental policies. In Indonesia, Phytomer has been officially distributed by PT Regenesis Indonesia since the brand entered the local aesthetic clinic and spa market.
