At Berrichi, we reached a significant milestone in 2020 by obtaining the prestigious
EcoCert certification. This recognition is the result of hard work and dedication,
confirming our commitment to the highest standards of quality and environmental
sustainability. But what exactly does it mean for Berrichi products to be EcoCert
certified, and why is it important?

The Meaning and Importance of the EcoCert Certification
EcoCert is a globally recognized certification body focusing on the protection of
ecological and biological diversity, responsible resource use, and ensuring a clean
production process. Receiving the EcoCert certification means that our products meet
stringent requirements, including:

• Use of Natural and Ecological Ingredients: Certified products must contain a
  high percentage of natural ingredients, with a significant portion being organically
  grown. This ensures that the products are safe for both the skin and the
  environment.
• Environmentally Friendly Production Process: EcoCert demands that the
  entire production process be environmentally friendly, from sourcing raw
  materials to final product packaging. This means Berrichi adheres to strict
  environmental protection standards throughout its production process.
• Transparent and Responsible Business Management: EcoCert also assesses
  a company’s social responsibility, including fair labor practices and responsible
  business management.

Berrichi’s Journey to EcoCert Certification
Achieving the EcoCert certification required extensive work. This involved thorough
preparation, including careful selection of raw materials, optimization of the production
process, and continuous quality monitoring. We had to demonstrate that our products
and production processes met all EcoCert requirements.

Maintaining the certification is also an ongoing process, requiring regular audits and
continuous compliance monitoring. This means Berrichi is committed to continuous
improvement and innovation to keep our products aligned with EcoCert standards.

August is a particularly significant month for us as we received our certification in
August 2020. Each year, we undergo a new audit, and this year was no exception.
Recently, an EcoCert auditor visited us, and because we have consistently worked to
improve our products and practices, we successfully passed the audit.

What Does the EcoCert Certification Mean for Berrichi Customers?
Berrichi’s EcoCert certification provides customers with the assurance that they are
using products that are not only effective but also considerate of the environment and
nature. This means customers can enjoy natural skincare while being confident that
their choices support sustainability and environmental preservation.

Having the EcoCert certification is a major achievement for Berrichi, reaffirming our
commitment to the highest standards of quality and responsibility. It also serves as a
guarantee to our customers that they are using reliable, environmentally friendly, and
effective products. Berrichi will continue to work towards maintaining and improving our
products to keep the EcoCert certification, ensuring ongoing customer satisfaction and
environmental friendliness.
