THOUGHTFUL LIFESTYLE
ACQUIZHEN aims to use not only the purest ingredients but also the simplest and most effective extraction techniques to put active ingredients into their skincare range. Some ingredients used in ACQUIZHEN products are harvested from the wild. To meet their certification standards, the harvesting of these products must be sustainable. ACQUIZHEN also aims to use ingredients which provide a fair wage to people at the plants source as well as maintaining the natural resources that they rely on.
COMMITTMENT TO THE ENVIRONMENT
Using ingredients that are harvested from organic or sustainable wild sources is only the first step in delivering ACQUIZHEN’s products in a considered manner. With a minimum of 99.20% of their active ingredients derived from natural sources ACQUIZHEN has responded to the logical as well as emotional motivation to embed sustainable business practice through the whole chain.
TREES FOR THE FUTURE
We plant one tree for every product purchased. ACQUIZHEN has partnered with Trees for the Future, a non-profit organization that plants trees around the world in communities struggling with severe problems related to deforestation; an agroforestry resource center helping people improve their rural livelihoods through the introduction of environmentally sustainable land management projects focused on beneficial tree planting.
ORGANIC CERTIFICATION
ACQUIZHEN chose ECOCERT as their certifying body because it is internationally recognised, and because they felt that the standards emphasise that ACQUIZHEN’s products are derived from nature.
ECOCERT is the body that certifies all our products as organic as shown in the ECOCERT ORGANIC COSMETIC logo on product packaging.
