Natural, 100% pure, fair trade and organic essential oils of first-class quality, carefully distilled with low-pressure steam or cold pressing.

The first organic and fair trade essential oils

We present probably the first ever range of essential oils in the world with organic farming certification, which are completely produced according to fair trade principles directly at the place of origin of the plants used. Cultivation and collection of aromatic and medicinal plants is based on ancestral tradition and is connected with knowledge, know-how and respect for the local ecosystem. Those who grow these plants, but have a secondary role in the production process, are poorly valued, and the growers themselves very rarely carry out the distillation.
However, the Terra Etica cooperative project of the French company Ethiquable creates fair trade projects with these producers, with fair prices, long-term commitment and a guarantee of origin. Among other things, this allows producers to improve their remuneration and reintroduce plant varieties that have already disappeared. It is this fair approach that has made it possible to build new craft distilleries that offer employment, added value and higher qualifications to the indigenous population.

Distillation of essential oils carried out at the heart of small producer cooperatives is carried out by cold pressing or steam under low pressure, which allows to extract all the aromatic substances of the plant. They are then packed in France in colored bottles that limit the penetration of light and thus prevent oxidation that would reduce the quality of the oil.
