Fair trade ingredients
"We take care to protect natural resources in everything we do."
Head of Cultivation and Project Leader, Gerhard Benz
The secret behind Primavera's high standard quality
HOW IS HIGH QUALITY ASSURED?
“For over 25 years PRIMAVERA has maintained fair trade relations with its world-wide partners who cultivate plants in a sustainable, environmentally-friendly manner. The active support of these farms in their conversation from conventional to organic growing is a firmly established part of our corporate philosophy. In order to ensure a high standard of quality, we monitor the produce seamlessly from sowing to processing, applying our strict guidelines."
EACH PLANT HAS ITS OWN FRAGRANCE PERSONALITY.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
“Yes, indeed. And that's not all. We are in the fortunate position -- thanks to close collaboration with our growing partners -- that only plants promoting health and wellbeing while preserving Earth's ecological balance are allowed in our products. From the seed and the growing process to the pure organic product, we strongly focus on quality. We can trace every stage in the development of our products back to the seed. We truly believe this is the only way to guarantee natural and pure recipes."
HOW ARE THE ESSENTIAL OILS EXTRACTED FROM THESE HIGH-QUALITY PLANTS?
“It differs between the plants and products themselves. We select the most suitable and least damaging method of processing, such as distillation, cold pressing or our own extraction processes. Whichever method used we take care to protect our natural resources."
ESSENTIAL OILS SMELL NICE, BUT WHAT ELSE CAN THEY DO?
“Essential oils have a psychologically balancing effect and also stimulate the body's defenses.
They have a wide range of different applications, ranging from skincare to mood-enhancing fragrances, which makes them a valuable asset on a day-to-day basis. That is why we ensure the highest quality and purity."
