The production of plant-based products poses a particularly large number of challenges: unforeseeable crop failures can lead to delivery problems, external influences can impair the quality of botanicals or a lack of guidelines in the countries where botanicals are grown can result in stresses and strains. This is why we are committed to a consistent quality concept. This ensures that we always obtain our products from premium-quality and sustainably grown botanicals.
Whether we are procuring our products from reliable partners or growing our plants under contract farming – our top priority is the protection of natural resources and promotion of sustainable growth. Thus we have anchored the “k.i.A.” concept, which stands for controlled, integrated cultivation (“kontrollierter, integrierter Anbau”), firmly into our botanicals policies. These include working with our suppliers on a very long-term basis, avoiding the use of chemical pesticides as far as possible and only using clearly defined raw materials. What’s more, thanks to our integration within the nature network®, we have a secure supply of all the botanicals we need and that in the very highest level of quality. We also offer products that are 100% compliant with organic, halal and kosher standards.
