Silver COMPANY PROFILE
bbspa_Group
Background
In an extremely competitive world where clients have ever increasing demands, creating a successful wellness and spa project is more and more complex.
On these premises, we have been working
for 30 years and have built an international
network of professionals; we are leaders in
the evaluation, conception, creation, design,
planning and management of wellness
and spa projects around the world.
Main products and services
bbspa_Group stands out for its unique method to help clients run a successful business. We provide tailored support to redesign each individual service according to the needs and goals of each structure. We guarantee customised assistance throughout all stages of the spa project thanks to our core services:
We Think:
we rethink or design from
scratch the essential features of a successful
spa, by establishing an innovative and
marketing-oriented spa concept and a
sustainable and profi table business model.
We Set Up: we make the spa concept fully
functional, manageable, and sustainable
through the analysis of space, functions, and
technological and management requirements.
We Design:
we support the client’s team
of architects, engineers and suppliers, in an effort to define and develop executive
projects, and in every step of construction up
to the quality control of the work completed.
We Manage:
we support investors and
managers of wellness and spa projects
in defining and applying a management
model with measurable results.
Our aim is to create not just a spa, but a
place that is representative of our clients’
values and identity. Focusing on guaranteeing
the profitability of our clients’ investment,
we pay attention to art and design, local
culture, current styles, and trends, and
we embody such aspects in our spa
projects, enhancing their unique identity.
Where in the world?
bbspa_Group is internationally active directly
and through its branches: bbspa_France
and bbspa_Asia. In order to be closer to
our customers, in the years ahead we plan
to increase the number of branches and
open new ones. We are currently looking at
locations in Germany, the UK and the UAE,
where we have projects in the pipeline.
With more than 20 projects in 10 countries
and 50.500 sqm of spa area developed,
our activity is carried out in Italy, as well as
in France, England, Belgium, Saudi Arabia,
Spain and Switzerland, where we are
proud to collaborate with corporate groups
such as Accor, Terme di Saturnia, Grape
Hospitality, Biologique Recherche, Snow
Group, and Pandox. We work on several
innovative projects, the most recent of
which concerns the construction of the first
big spa (4000 m2) in a football stadium.
Future plans
While offering a 360-degree consulting service,
we are committed to researching solutions
and technologies to meet the demands
that come both from the end customer and,
above all, from wellness providers (facilities,
therapists, spa managers) to facilitate and
improve services. Examples include SPACUBES,
100%YOU, YOOUMA, and AQUAMOTUS.
We aim to become an increasingly
international company by developing
projects in Europe and in all foreign markets
where our know-how can be appealing. We
will therefore continue investing in and
expanding our R&D activities to bring more
innovative technologies to our customers.

bbspa_France channels La Dolce Vita to realise Biologique Recherche’s new Rome outpost
Inside a historical palace once owned by the Colonna family – one of the oldest and most famous Roman patrician families – premium skincare and spa company Biologique Recherche has opened the doors to a new location in Rome, Italy. Named Ambassade Roma, the 250sq m facility is located just a few steps from iconic Italian landmarks such as the Pantheon and Piazza di Spagna. The opulent two-floor facility includes a reception area and retail area, a waiting room and a product testing room, as well as six treatment cabins – four for individuals and two for couples – and a communal area for the spa team. The new destination was born out of a collaboration between Biologique Recherche and bbspa_France, the French branch of leading international spa consultancy bbspa_Group. A glamorous, refined, intimate and rich historical environment, Ambassade Roma is dedicated to serving a clientele of connoisseurs and wellness enthusiasts, both Roman and international. The facility has been realised within a historical building formerly home to a famous lingerie shop during the 1950s that boasted a VIP clientele, including famous actresses linked to Cinecittà – an iconic Italian film studio – as well as famous women from all over the world passing through Rome. bbspa_France’s challenge was to transform the shop into a wellness centre, a feat made possible thanks to a collaboration with architect Joanne De Lepinay who sensitively refreshed the retro environment into a facility suitable for the modern consumer. bbspa_Group’s We Design team also worked with Italian craftsmen to remodel the existing furnishings to adapt them to the needs of Biologique Recherche’s technologies and protocols, taking historical materials and embellishing them with Corian and alabaster. “Biologique Recherche is creating its own network of embassies worldwide to guarantee customers an experience that matches its brand,” says Régis Boudon-Doris, CEO and founder of bbspa_Group. He also revealed that Biologique Recherche and bbspa_Group will further their relationship with the opening of two more Ambassades in 2023 and 2024.

Protect your investments and maximise your profit with bbspa_Group
bbspa_Group is a leading international spa consultancy based in Italy, renowned for its unique character and organic design approach. Its goal is to optimise spa operations without neglecting attention to detail and personal interpretation of each project “We work with entrepreneurs, investors, builders and architects to conceptualise, design and build spa and wellness facilities that will captivate customers, retain them and, at the same time, ensure a profitable business for those who open or manage the destination,” explained Régis Boudon-Doris, bbspa_Group founder and CEO. In 2019, the group expanded its reach and joined forces with European spa industry leader the Snow Group, which manages over 60 spas across the continent. The Snow group is comprised of Deep Nature, Cinq Mondes and Algotherm and is owned by Deep Nature's original shareholders Groupe Bateur. Out of the collaboration, a new management company called Snow Group Italia was born. Boudon-Doris says the collaboration enables the company to blend “the best of Italian design with French art de vivre to deliver authentic and successful projects”. The team’s latest architectural innovation is Spacubes®, a new turnkey business model designed specifically for those who want to invest in the wellness industry. Inspired by modular architecture, the structure allows for the construction of adjustable, turnkey, prefabricated spas that can be adapted to different building spaces, industrialised and replicated in multiple locations or customised for different target audiences. bbspa_Group describes Spacubes® as an architectural innovation which it’s patented in partnership with the international architectural firm D/DOCK. Another recent R&D innovation from the company is its 1OO%YOU antiviral spa uniform range. “It represents a revolution in the concept of 'professional uniforms',” added Boudon-Doris, “for the first time we’re offering spa uniforms made of 100 per cent polypropylene, guaranteeing hygiene, comfort and a distinctive design.” The chic range is blended out of a natural yarn called polypropylene which creates a light synthetic material that is antibacterial, waterproof and can easily be disposed of in plastic waste once no longer of use. Designed by stylist Christine Vignoli, the collection is available in six sizes in various colours for both men and women. All garments are officially certified as PPE.
