Wellness: our products are gentle for the skin
Our approach is to exclude substances that are considered to represent a risk of skin irritation or currently recognized as skin allergens by EU Scientific Committee on Cosmetic Products and Non-Food Products (SCCNFP)
Our hypoallergenic formulas were designed to help reduce the risk of allergies so that it is suitable for people of all skin types, even those with the most sensitive skin.
First brand of cleaning products in France approved by allergy doctors of ARCAA (Association for Clinical Research in Allergology and Asthmology, France)
Our R&D team is closely monitoring all the new developments in allergy medical research and regulations,allowing us to be proactively aware of new substances that could become potential allergens or skin irritators to ensure ongoing focus on delivering products for people even with the most sensitive skin.
Environment: respect for the planet
Since 2003 the history of L'ARBRE VERT has been built around the EU label of environmental excellence Ecolabel label with many of our internal guidelines going even above and beyond Ecolabel requirements. Most of our Home Care products are Ecolabel certified.
We prioritize ingredients of natural origin, rigorously selected based on their high quality and fit with the product, and also those in line with our Respect for Health & Wellness commitment.
