Towards a greener future

Our Responsible Commitments

Respect for nature and biodiversity is an integral part of our company's values. We are already a socially responsible company, but we want to go further.

Our commitments now revolve around three pillars: the Quality of our products, Human aspects, and the Environment. Our dedication to these three pillars guides our daily actions.

PILLAR #3

The Environment

We are firmly committed to environmental protection and biodiversity. This is reflected in concrete actions such as the preservation of pollinators, responsible water management, the naturalness and biodegradability of our products, reducing our carbon footprint, and more. We are working to minimize our impact on the planet in line with our environmental values.

Together, we have avoided the use of 1.6 million single-use plastic bottles, so far!
