Committed and responsible plant sourcing
At a time when many of our planet’s ecosystems are under increasing threat, Plantex is affirming its commitment to sustainable agriculture that protects both our environment and our people.
The meticulous selection of our plant-based ingredients is at the heart of our ethical approach
In our ongoing quest for increasingly eco-responsible sourcing, we pay particular attention to the responsible harvesting of plants. We are aware of the vital importance of these natural resources and their impact on the quality of our end products.
Demanding, well thought-out and controlled sourcing
Our expertise in sourcing plants for our extracts is based on in-depth knowledge of species identification and an understanding of the extraction methods best suited to preserving their purity and efficacy. This meticulous and rigorous selection of raw materials enables us to meet the most demanding standards in terms of quality, safety and traceability.
Ensuring the quality and traceability of our ingredients remains a fundamental priority that guides everything we do.
We constantly strive to secure and improve our supply chains, favouring those that best protect the planet, plants and human beings. We also ensure that our extraction practices meet sustainability standards and minimise environmental impact.

Our requirements
of our partners
For the sourcing of certain materials such as vanilla, we work closely with local partners to ensure a sustainable supply of plants while preserving ecosystems.
These long-term relationships with our partners enable us to work closely with local communities, promoting economic development while preserving ancestral traditions and know-how.
We insist that producers implement good agronomic practices, whether in terms of biodiversity, management of aquatic resources, control of contaminants, or the fight against the exploitation of children.
We are also committed to promoting sustainable agricultural practices, in particular by encouraging organic farming.
Plantex has held organic certification issued by Ecocert since 1998.
