Active ingredients for the well-being of body and mind

 

Since 1977, our mastery of plant extraction technologies has enabled our Innovation, Research and Development (IR&D) team to design nutraceutical and cosmetic active ingredients of natural origin*, contributing to mind and body well-being.

Our demanding pharmaceutical culture ensures that our ingredients meet the highest standards of quality, efficacy, safety and stability.

*According to the ISO 16128 standard for cosmetic active ingredients

Traceable supply chains

 

Our commitment to well-being and more responsible sourcing has led us to reinforce our plant-based raw material supply chain traceability. We apply this demanding approach to all our supply chains worldwide, in France, South America, Africa and Asia. Since 2011, we have been a member of the Union for Ethical BioTrade (UEBT), a non-profit association that promotes ethical sourcing which respects people and biodiversity.

To go even further, some of our supply chains (maca, tulsi, schisandra) are certified by labels such as Fair for Life and FairWild, in order to support local communities, promote the principles of the circular economy and preserve natural resources.
