Our eco-responsible commitments

Aware of ecological issues , we believe that everyone has their share of responsibility .
Thus, we set up a certain number of actions , aimed at reduce our environmental impact , on our scale.

Our products benefit from these labels:

Favor a natural, reasoned and reasonable agriculture.

Most of our peppers and spices are organic certified by organizations recognized as Ecocert and some of which benefit from additional labels such as PGI or PDO.

The other products that we import that do not have the ORGANIC label come from a natural agriculture, without chemical input , and which concern small family plantations.

Each of our producers have been selected for their commitment , in respect of their work and the environment.

Stay connected to the Earth.

Our commitment does not stop there...

We believe that to understand nature, it is necessary to be in direct contact with it. Thus, we have acquired land in Sri Lanka where we grow pepper, cardamom, cloves, and the famous Ceylon cinnamon, in permaculture in the middle of fruit trees such as mango, avocado, coconut tree and banana tree; all in symbiosis with a luxuriant fauna and flora.

This magnificent natural laboratory allows us to be connected to nature but also to exchange with planters from elsewhere, enriching our respective knowledge with respect for everyone.

To recycle

We have chosen solid, durable packaging that does not get thrown away. Our pepper boxes are metal cases (tinplate food) designed not only for better preservation of your peppers but also to be reused.

However, if you do not wish to keep them, we invite you to bring them back to us so that we entrust them to a recycling .

Carbon offsetting.

We have chosen a solution that opts for the purchase of offsets carbon . Admittedly, this option is not viable on its own in the long term, however it contributes to a ecological thinking and is part of a broader strategy aimed at reduce direct emissions as much as possible and offset any remaining emissions.

Reforestation.

As far as possible, we deliver our goods using non-polluting or low-polluting vehicles: on foot, by bicycle or in electric vehicles; but this is not always possible, as we ship worldwide.

In this case, we calculate the distance that our parcels travel and the carbon footprint resulting from their shipments; then we let's reinvest the amount of their compensation in reforestation and forest protection projects.
