"NATURE IS OUR FUTURE"

A vision of Mr Rocher still guiding us.

 

At Yves Rocher, we are committed to a living beauty, out of love for nature.

We are botanists, harvesters, crafters and retailers to give the best of Bretagne's

Nature at the fairest price since 1959. Our actions speak louder than words.

 

Engagement #1

PLANT ACTIVE INGREDIENTS, IN OUR FORMULAS

For us, naturality rhymes with 100% efficiency

Pioneers and visionaries, experts in Yves Rocher's Botanical Beauty ® explore the fabulous potential of plants to design 100% plant active ingredients.

For innovative and efficient products, which contribute to the respect of the environment.

 

 

Engagement #2

AGROECOLOGY, IN OUR FIELDS

For us, agriculture is circular.

At La Gacilly we chose agroecology as a pioneer model of agriculture to regenerate and revitalize soils and environment.

Thanks to the expertise of our botanists and agronomists, we have chosen regenerative farming methods that revitalize soils and environment around our fields.

Our 9 emblematic plants grow in Bretagne, in a field of 60 hectares cultivated in agroecology and certified organic since 1999.

We strive to promote these more virtuous agricultural practices to all of our partner producers.

As a member of UEBT (Union for Ethical BioTrade), we are committed to source all our natural ingredients with respect for both people and biodiversity.

 

Engagement #3

MORE RESPONSIBLE PACKAGING, IN YOUR LIFE

For us, "Less Is More"    

Less packaging, less plastic, for more sustainability.

Every day, we are rethinking our packaging and habits to drastically reduce waste generation in the coming years.

Since October 2020, all our bottles are made in 100% recycled* and recyclable plastic. *

*Excluding caps, pumps, labels and bottles solvents

 

Engagement #4

THE PROTECTION OF BIODIVERSITY, IN OUR HISTORY

For us, protecting is not a trend.

Since 1959, preserving and enriching biodiversity has always been one of our key commitments in our fields and around the world.

All our sites have held bird sanctuary status from France's Birds Protection League, including our Botanical Garden and the 1500 preserved plant species that compose it.

With the Yves Rocher Foundation's PLANT FOR LIFE program, 100 million trees were planted in 2020: one every three seconds.

 

 

 

Organic & Sustainable Agricultural Practices

Our 60 hectares of fields in La Gacilly have been certified as organic and cultivated using sustainable agricultural practices since 1999.

A positive agricultural model that respects natural resources and contributes to biodiversity regeneration.

 

UEBT, A Union That Makes Us Strong

Our 9 emblematic plants grown on our land in La Gacilly have been certified UEBT (Union for Ethical Biotrade) since 2021.

The 1st French brand to receive this certification, we are proud of this recognition of our commitment to protecting species and to mankind.

 

1% FOR THE PLANET, the Earth Thanks Us

We are members of the 1% for the Planet thanks to our work in Brittany.. This means that we donate 1% of our turnover to environmental associations.

 

 

The Yves Rocher Foundation works tirelessly to preserve biodiversity. It is committed to nature by providing support and financial aid to alternative and powerful local initiatives across the world.

 

With its Plant for Life program and thanks to a close collaboration with 48 NGOs and associations working in the field,

100 million trees have already been planted around the globe.

With Terre de Femmes, more than 500 winners working to save our planet in 50 different countries have received awards.

For these 30 years of work in the field, the Yves Rocher Foundation has been recognized as being of public utility,

a pride that we share, as the primary sponsor, with all of our collaborators.
