In view of the labels and controls mentioned below,
Gedane can certify that all products are
100% pure and natural as well as pesticide-free.
We even go
beyond the requirements of traditional organic labels....we offer HYPERORGANIC, thanks to quality controls made on all our essential oils !
And this comes on top of the pureness of traditional and well-preserved organic fields where we grow our plants.
All our essential oils are microbiologically tested pesticide-free, as well as free of any other contamination.
These tests are made on raw material (plants, flowers...) before AND after distillation (in India and at the arrival in Switzerland by EPFL), which allows us to guarantee very high quality products. (quality assurance).
