Diego Baigros<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>

With extensive experience in landscaping and production in Mallorca. His knowledge in horticulture<\/strong> has allowed him to understand the needs of plants and create sustainable and beautiful environments. Diego is dedicated to selecting aloe vera plants that are best suited to the terrain of the Balearic Islands, ensuring maximum concentration of beneficial bioactives<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Luciano Perri<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>

Luciano is a pediatric surgeon<\/strong> dedicated to his profession and to the well-being of his patients. In his professional practice, in addition to performing surgeries, he treats burns, always making sure that patients receive the best care in a specialized environment. Although his main focus is medicine, a thorough literature review on the benefits<\/strong> of aloe vera sparked his interest in this plant.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span> <\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

He has discovered its wonderful properties for the skin, especially in the recovery after sun exposure, which frequently produces first-degree sunburns<\/strong>. One of his goals is to further study aloe vera to explore its possible applications, especially in the treatment of sunburn.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

BENEFITS<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

<\/div>

More and more scientific studies are describing the beneficial components of aloe vera, as well as the different bioactive components of plants depending on the place, care and environment in which they grow. Acemannan, also known as aloverose, is a bioactive polysaccharide found in aloe vera that has multiple proven health benefits. Its biological activities include immunomodulation, anti-cancer properties, antioxidants, promotion of wound healing, bone proliferation, neuroprotection and promotion of intestinal health. According to the International Aloe Science Council (IASC), acemannan has a crucial role in future medical and pharmacological applications.<\/p>\n

At Balealoe we are committed to actively participate in future scientific studies on the use of aloe vera in skin care.<\/p>\n<\/div>

HISTORY<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>

“The restlessness and entrepreneurial spirit of two friends were the driving forces that gave life to Balealoe.”<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>

THE BEGINNINGS OF
\nBALEALOE<\/p><\/h4><\/div>

Luciano Perri was doing his specialty in family medicine in the Canary Islands<\/strong> when his tutor revealed to him the world of alternative medicine. He introduced him to plant therapies, awakening his curiosity for aloe vera, its varieties, applications and properties.<\/p>\n

His interest in the plant grew years later, during his training as a pediatric surgeon in Galicia<\/strong> and his subsequent stay in Andalusia<\/strong>. In this region, he observed how the local population used aloe vera on a daily basis for various medicinal and cosmetic purposes, and visited the aloe vera plantations in Andalusia.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span> <\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Over the years he moved to the Balearic Islands<\/strong>, and it was in Mallorca where he met Diego Baigros. In addition to having a common vision, Diego had been using aloe vera for therapeutic purposes since he was a child and was familiar with its many benefits. His experience in the field of plant breeding and genetics was remarkable: he had created a seed through genetic transfer<\/strong> and Masal selection, managing to certify its uniformity and production in the field. This seed was used for the extraction of castor oil for use in biofuels.
\nThe experience provided him with the knowledge and skills necessary to tackle a large-scale agricultural project. This is how, under his guidance, Luciano created his first organic vegetable garden.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

THE FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN
\nDIEGO AND LUCIANO<\/p><\/h4><\/div>

Diego had always wanted to develop a project of his own and the acquisition of a farm in the village of Pina, in Algaida, Mallorca, was the starting point of this joint project.<\/p>\n

One of the many conversations that arose on Mallorcan summer nights led to the idea of embarking on the cultivation of an aloe vera plantation. Their interest in the plant was reinforced as they studied the project and discovered that aloe vera Barbadensis Miller did very well in the Balearic Islands.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span> <\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Luciano and Diego set out to differentiate themselves in a market saturated by cosmetic products with low ingredient transparency. They decided to focus on improving the bioactive concentrations of the plants through selective cultivation and achieve the highest concentration of aloeverose (acemannan) possible.
\nThus Balealoe was born, under a clear vision: to produce aloe vera products, especially of the Barbadensis Miller type, with the beneficial bioactives in high concentrations. In addition, to contribute to the dissemination of aloe vera, sharing knowledge and techniques.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

NATURAL AND ECOLOGICAL<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>

In recent years, natural and organic cosmetics have gained ground due to the growing concern about ingredients and their effects on health and the environment.<\/p>\n

The ACENE certification on our products guarantees that we do not use pesticides, synthetic fertilizers or genetically modified organisms, which is essential for conscious consumers.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

BALEALOE<\/h4><\/div>

Our name is a reflection of our origin:
\n“Bale” from Baleares and “aloe” from Aloe Vera.<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

The natural beauty of the island, with its unique resources and fragile ecosystem, requires a careful and respectful approach. Our products are designed not to harm Posidonia oceanica<\/strong>, a marine algae crucial to the health of the Mediterranean Sea. Posidonia not only maintains water quality, but is also essential for marine biodiversity.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

“With our cosmetics, we are committed to protecting this precious environment and encouraging sustainable practices that benefit both the environment and the local community. ”<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

QUALITY<\/p><\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div>

Great quality and care<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

We pay attention to every detail to ensure the highest quality and sustainability of our products. We use recyclable violet glass containers that better preserve the properties of aloe vera and minimize the use of plastics.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/span><\/div>

Healthy and sustainable<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

GOAL<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

<\/div>

Our goal is to expand the size of the plantation<\/strong> with daughters of the selected plants, to reach all the islands of the Balearic archipelago and to always maintain the high concentration of bioactives<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>
