OUR COMMUNITY
We only work with accredited partners who meet our values and commitments. Our product formulation is created by a leading German laboratory, with production and packaging sourced from a global supply chain and final production and distribution in the UK.
As a business in its infancy we do not claim to cover all of our corporate social responsibilities. We have set clear objectives for improvement.
Our code of conduct and our corporate social responsibility policies apply to our principled and accredited partners so that they care for others and the planet, just as we do.
