Environmental policy

Safety policy

Since its creation, Arkopharma has specialised in the manufacture of medicines and dietetic and cosmetic products based on natural raw materials. This is the spirit, traditionally close to nature, in which we still develop our new products today. Promoting phytotherapy and nutritherapy without taking the environment at our production sites into account is therefore inconceivable.
Since its inception, ARKOPHARMALaboratoires has specialised in the manufacture of medicines and dietetic and cosmetic products based on natural raw materials. This is the spirit, traditionally close to Nature, in which we still develop our new products today. Promoting phytotherapy and nutritherapy without taking the environment at our production sites into account is therefore inconceivable.
As a pharmaceutical industry, we are fully conscious of our responsibility, which is why we undertake to continue our policy on safety and the environment. We want this commitment to be a factor in internal progress and a trump card in our relations with our partners.
Our line of conduct has always been to seek out the best in Nature and to do this, we owe it to ourselves to have respect for it.
