OUR GLASS CONTAINERS
Our glass containers are 100% recyclable
and reusable.
Where we want to improve
- For now, our glass containers are imported from Asia, and we are still looking for more local production to minimize the impact of transport.
- We are also actively developing our refill products, which will be available shortly.
OUR PLASTIC PACKAGING
Our « airless » jars are made of polypropylene plastic, which is 100% recyclable.
Where we would like to improve
- We would like our plastic pots to be made from PCR plastic (100% recycled plastic).
- We are actively developing our refill products, which will be available shortly.
OUR BOXES
Our packaging is made from FCS-certified materials, helping to reduce negative environmental impacts, promote the long-term vitality of forests and uphold the rights of workers and indigenous peoples.
Where we want to improve
Eventually, we'd like our cardboard packaging to be 100% compostable.
PACKAGING AND PRODUCTION WASTE
The protective packaging waste from our supplies, such as bottles and raw materials, should not be neglected. However, we are fully committed to recycling or reusing all such waste.
Where we want to improve
- By promoting the purchase of refills (project to come), we are reducing the quantity of imported supplies.
OUR PRODUCTS
All our products are: non-toxic, silicone-free, paraben-free, polymer-free, mineral oil and wax-free, chemical additive-free, chemical preservative-free, synthetic colorants and fragrances-free, vegetable ingredients grown with pesticides-free, animal ingredients-free (except honey in 2 products). They are also non-carcinogenic and non-endocrine-disrupting, and are never tested on animals.
Where we want to improve
Conduct product efficiency studies.
OUR INGREDIENTS
In keeping with our ethical, eco-responsible mission and quality standards, all our ingredients are accepted and/or verified by Ecocert or sourced from
recognized manufacturers
We are also passionate about growing plants in our own gardens and practicing ecological wild harvesting in the wild.
Where we want to improve
- Despite the geographical dispersion of our suppliers around the world, we are keen to increase our network of Canadian and local suppliers, with the aim of supporting the local economy and reducing the impact of transportation and the life cycle of our raw materials.
OUR TEAM, OUR COLLABORATORS
