Quality & CSR

Guaranteed quality and traceability

Quality, safety, and the environment are at the heart of our concerns. That's why one member of our team is 100% dedicated to these subjects, to regulatory issues and to continuous improvement.

 

We are committed to an HACCP approach and have a food quality range.
We carry out over 500 analyses a year‎ guaranteeing product traceability all the way back to the producer and potentially to the plot.

 

SCA3P also benefits from genuine expertise in the filtration, stabilization, and aging of essential oils, blending and sensory control.

Labels & certifications

Most of our varieties are available organically, and we also sell a Fine Lavender with Protected Designation of Origin “Haute-Provence”, which meets specific requirements.

In 2023, we obtained UEBT certification for the ethical sourcing a part of our Lavandin Grosso Essential Oil produced by 3 of our members producers on the Plateau de Valensole. The sourcing of this iconic ingredient of our production and of our beautiful Provence is based on respect for people and biodiversity, a key pillar of our CSR policy, to ensure the sustainability of the industry.

To go further, we have recently taken steps to offer Fair For Life-certified essential oils from fair trade sources in the near future.
