Sustainable lotus plant sourcing for Fresh
Fresh strives to reduce the environmental impact of manufacturing its treatments and perfumes as much as possible. For example, the Maison has set up a sustainable supply chain of Super Lotus for its creams. The lotus plants it uses for this ingredient are sourced from a traceable, organic, short supply chain. To keep transport to a minimum, the lotus plants are pressed onsite at the farm thanks to the use of a mobile lab. The leftover product is composted and returned straight to the soil as fertilizer to preserve the ecological balance. Lastly, no solvents, chemicals or water are used in the extraction process.
