Our commitments
A cosmetic rooted in our commitments
For more than 40 years, Centifolia has cultivated a committed vision of care, where science and ethics move forward together.
From the plant to the skin, each treatment is designed to combine performance and responsibility, in order to create effective treatments based on natural and certified organic ingredients. Our commitments are concrete and rooted in our daily way of doing things.
Organic certified products
As pioneers of French organic cosmetics, we have chosen to certify our products in the COSMOS Organic standard. This specification guarantees production and processing processes that respect the environment and human health, a responsible use of natural resources, respect for biodiversity, the absence of petrochemical ingredients (excluding authorized preservatives) : parabens, phenoxyethanol, synthetic perfumes and dyes, the absence of GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms). In order for a Centifolia cosmetic to obtain certification under this label, an independent body checks once a year that it strictly complies with these specifications.
This guarantees not only the naturalness of our formulas, but also a requirement in terms of manufacturing, sourcing and ethics. For us, organic certification demonstrates a global and uncompromising commitment, from the plant to the skin.
The eco-design of our products
Ecodesign is a central pillar of our global approach. It consists of designing products with the lowest possible impact on the environment, taking into account their entire life cycle: from the sourcing of raw materials to their end of life, including their manufacture, use and recyclability.
Our packaging is designed to be recyclable, lightweight in plastic, made by incorporating recycled materials. We prioritize useful formats to avoid waste, and offer refills to limit waste.
Our production site has been designed according to the High Environmental Quality (HQE) standard. It is 100% powered by renewable energy, and partly self-produced thanks to our solar panels and biomass boilers.
We also treat our effluents on site thanks to a plant purification station, a process that relies on the use of bacteria and reed beds, reflecting our desire to preserve natural resources.
At Centifolia, every action counts: formulating, manufacturing and packaging with respect for the living, combining performance, simplicity and responsibility.
