Philosophy
Our Philosophy
Organizations can play a positive role in embracing sustainability while providing the full spectrum of nature’s therapies. At 18 Herbs, we embrace this principle. This is a conscious choice and not the default option. We fully understand that any economic activity (ie what we do for a living) threatens nature and our environment by being unsustainable and damaging. However, we believe that there is another, more responsible path. While we are not yet 100% sustainable, we are clear and passionate about our responsibilities as a firm
Our responsibilities are three-fold:
Responsible for the health of consumers
- We produce 100% natural products that promote better health
- All our products are completely safe for you and your children
- We utilize traditional health systems backed by modern scientific formulations and testing
Responsible for the land and its biodiversity
- We adopt sustainable cultivation / collection of herbs including Organic certifications.
- Our products are free of chemicals, toxic residues, artificial coloring, preservatives, fragrances or colours.
- We are against animal testing
Responsible for our farmers
- We are in direct touch with our farmers, most of whom are small & marginalised.
- We help promote native (which are environmentally friendly by default) farming practices.
- We aid farmer welfare and social equity.
