For 25 years, Maître Savonitto has shared common values that are ingrained in its DNA. Ethical values on issues that we deem important and that are at the core of our attention. This is why we have implemented a number of measures concerning CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility): deep commitments shared by the entire team.

What is CSR? CSR, or Corporate Social Responsibility, represents all the environmental, social, and economic initiatives that a company can implement to promote ethical and sustainable methods. Let's take a look at the various issues we constantly strive to improve upon, with a genuine desire for transparency.

Environmental issues

• Use of raw materials
• Energy consumption (insulation, lighting, etc.)
• Water consumption
• CO2 emissions (travel, logistics, etc.)
• Waste production and management

Our production chain does not require the use of water, which today is a real added value for our ecosystem. Our workshops are very energy-efficient, and we produce almost no waste. Some soaps are offered without packaging, others are packaged in French poplar wood boxes, or in recycled European packaging (FSC standard).

Economic and societal issues

• Customer satisfaction (quality, deadlines, price, traceability)
• Supplier relations (reliability, quality, etc.)
• Contribution to local development

We use organic and local raw materials as much as possible. We have developed partnerships with local producers to supply us with natural ingredients. In addition, we guarantee the naturalness of our formulas. The vegetable oils, milks, natural exfoliants, and active ingredients (charcoal, spirulina, etc.) are of high quality, biodegradable, and often certified. The quality of our products is strictly controlled, and we comply with strict regulations: formulas validated by a cosmetic chemist, application of ISO 22716 standard which defines Good Manufacturing Practices for cosmetics, compliance with EC Regulation 1223/2009, etc.

Social issues

Recruitment and skills development

• Equal opportunities (M/F, diversity, disability, etc.)
• Transfer of know-how
• Training
• Performance reviews

Labor relations and working conditions

• Health and safety
• Quality of life at work
• Compensation policy

Participatory management

For Maître Savonitto's 25th anniversary late last year, we organized a team trip to the Southern Alps. On the agenda: team building, collaborative atmosphere, mutual aid, and surpassing oneself. It is thanks to the unity of our team that the adventure can continue!

Our spearhead: continuous improvement! We make a value promise to our customers. That is to create products that respect nature and people, with natural, effective, and traceable ingredients, all at affordable prices. We constantly question ourselves in order to improve, because your satisfaction is the most important thing to us.
