Being part of the 2025 Mapping of French Impact Startups, conducted by Bpifrance, France Digitale, and Mouvement Impact France, is a recognition that reinforces one of our core beliefs: innovation can and must serve life.

This vision is what drives us when we design our cultivation methods. We optimize our technologies and processes to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and develop the production of botanical ingredients that are resource-efficient, life-respecting, and sustainable.

Three SDGs guide our actions in particular:

🔧 SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure

We are developing reliable, sustainable, and high-quality production by rethinking traditional industrial models. Our goal is to promote inclusive industrialization that benefits everyone and stimulates innovation and scientific research.

♻️ SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production

Our cultivation units are designed to be efficient and resource-conscious. Each botanical ingredient is maximized to reduce waste and preserve resources.

🌍 SDG 13: Climate Action

We work towards low-carbon production, while protecting plant biodiversity, including endangered species. We are also engaged in scientific research on the impacts of climate change on plant ecosystems.

A Recognition of Our Commitments: EcoVadis Rating

Our approach has been assessed by EcoVadis, a global leader in CSR ratings.
