Overview
Cumlaude Lab is a Spanish intimate-care brand based in Barcelona, specialising in feminine intimate hygiene, hydration and lubrication products sold mainly through pharmacies. It was created in 1998 within Laboratorios Dermofarm, a Barcelona pharmaceutical laboratory established in 1979 [1][2]. The brand describes its purpose as supporting women's intimate wellbeing across every life stage, from childhood through pregnancy and breastfeeding to the climacteric period.
The line is positioned as a pharmacy and gynaecology-channel brand rather than a mainstream cosmetics label, and its formulas are described by the company as gynaecologically tested, non-hormonal and free of parabens [2]. Today Cumlaude Lab belongs to Laboratorios Dermofarm within the Italian Ganassini group, and the company reports a presence in more than 20 countries across Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa.
Origin & founders
Cumlaude Lab was launched in 1998, with the stated goal of increasing the intimate wellbeing of women [2]. Rather than emerging as a standalone start-up, it began as a brand inside Dermofarm, which had been working in pharmaceutical research and development since 1979 [3]. The company frames the project as one developed "by the gynaecologist, for the gynaecologist" — created by listening to gynaecologists and shaped around the needs they identified in their patients. The individual founders are not named in available sources.
Ownership
Cumlaude Lab is a brand of Laboratorios Dermofarm, the Barcelona laboratory that created it, and Dermofarm in turn forms part of the Italian Ganassini group, which lists Cumlaude Lab among its portfolio brands [3][7]. The brand's own site identifies it in its footer as a "Marca de Laboratorios Dermofarm," and the Ganassini corporate site confirms the same chain of ownership [7]. The corporate page does not disclose the date or mechanism by which the Ganassini group came to hold Dermofarm, presenting the relationship as current. (Cumlaude Lab is sometimes assumed to sit under Cantabria Labs, the company behind Heliocare; available sources do not support that, and instead point consistently to Dermofarm within Ganassini [7].)
Philosophy & positioning
The brand presents itself as a pharmaceutical laboratory devoted to gynaecological health, combining clinical rigour with an explicitly taboo-free approach to women's intimate care — summarised in its tagline, "Con ciencia de mujer, para cuerpo y mente de mujer" (with women's science, for women's body and mind). Its stated values centre on research, quality, safety and education, and the company says it is committed to disseminating information about gynaecological health. Distribution runs through pharmacies, and according to the brand its feminine-care products are endorsed by gynaecologists and pharmacists, a positioning reflected in its professional, gynaecologist-recommended channel.
Products & innovation
Cumlaude Lab's core range covers intimate hygiene, hydration, lubrication, and products for inflammation and discomfort, alongside intimate wipes. Named products include the daily cleanser Origyn Higiene Íntima Diaria, the microbiota-respecting Prebiotic Lube, the cleansing oil Hidragyn Hydra Oil, and Prebiotic Spray Vulvar. The company also markets a separate line of women-focused dietary supplements, among them Gineseda, described as an integral solution for reducing menopause-associated symptoms.
On the formulation side, the Ganassini group describes Cumlaude Lab as a pioneer in formulations using chlorhexidine, hyaluronic acid, growth factors and prebiotics [7]. The brand's homepage cites IQVIA market data (TAM 04/2025) in claiming the position of number one in gynaecological recommendation [1], and the Ganassini group similarly characterises it as the intimate hygiene brand most recommended by Spanish gynaecologists [7]. Manufacturing takes place in Spain, and the company says its products are made using renewable energy.
Current status
Cumlaude Lab is an active brand. Its most recent visible activity includes market data dated to 2025 and a current product range, together with Planeta V, an editorial and community platform the company runs around feminine health and intimate wellness. The brand marked 25 years in 2023, counting from its 1998 launch [2].
Its international reach is stated slightly differently across its own locales: the Spanish-language site reports a presence in more than 30 countries [2], while the English about page gives a figure of more than 20 countries [3]. Both point to a broad, multi-region footprint across Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa.
