Valentino Mercati founded the Aboca laboratory in the spring of 1978. For him, it is not just a business, but a life’s work that connects health with nature. The founder is passionate aboutorganic agriculture and medicinal plants. He immersed himself in the study of ancient traditions that connect humans with medicinal plants, and as a result, he realized he had to make this immense wealth of knowledge available to everyone, combining the insights of millennia-old history with the potential offered by new scientific and technological discoveries. This is how Aboca began its journey in the natural health sector in a revolutionary way. At Aboca , the key word is “innovation,” achieved through organic farming to create 100% natural products. Its development journey is characterized by innovation; Aboca studies physiological mechanisms to identify a natural substance that best addresses a specific condition.
Founded in the spring of 1978 by Valentino Mercati, Aboca was born from a clear vision: to create a company dedicated to human health by harnessing the benefits of natural substances.
The name “Aboca” originates from the town of the same name, nestled in the Tuscan hills, where medicinal plants were already being cultivated as early as the 13th century. Etymologically, the term derives from “Abiga,” the old dialectal name for the small-leaved bugle, a medicinal plant with purifying properties.
From its very beginnings, Aboca has taken an innovative approach by combining traditional knowledge of medicinal plants with advanced scientific research. The company stands out for its commitment to 100% natural, effective, and safe products, developed according to the principles of systemic medicine, which considers the body in all its complexity.
Aboca controls its entire production chain, fromorganic farming to processing, and excludes the use of artificial substances. The agricultural phase is central to obtaining effective active ingredients and ensuring quality and standardization. The company directly cultivates more than 95 species that constitute an essential part of its raw materials.
In 2019, Aboca strengthened its commitment by becoming a Benefit Corporation, formally pledging to operate responsibly and transparently, with the goal of having a positive impact on society andthe environment, beyond mere profit.
Today, Aboca continues to combine tradition and innovation by investing in scientific research to deepen our understanding of natural substances and their interaction with the human body. The company strives to meet current and future health needs while respectingthe environment and contributing to the well-being of the planet.
