Committed to transparency and traceability thanks to its own supply chain in Peru, Laboratoires Expanscience has made avocado a product of excellence for over 30 years.
An oil with emollient and nourishing properties
Certified 100% organic by Ecocert Greenlife - according to the Cosmos (COSMetic Organic Standard) - this new organic virgin avocado oil is obtained by a cold-pressing method from the whole avocado: 100 % of the fruit is recovered, as the skin, pulp and stone are sliced, dehydrated and then pressed.
This exclusive physical process, patented by Expanscience, is in line with the laboratory's eco-design approach, and enables the oil to retain all the molecular richness of the avocado to nourish, protect the skin and add shine to the hair.
Controlling supply and the avocado supply chain in Peru
Considered a true product of excellence by Expanscience, the avocado, sourced at 100 % in Peru, is fully valorized in this new 100 % made in Peru guaranteed-origin virgin and organic oil.
The oil is produced directly at Expanscience's Deshidratados Tropicales plant in Lima.
Expanscience acquired the company in 2016 to secure supplies, be closer to growers and reduce the carbon impact of transporting fruit.
This transparent approach, from the sourcing of raw materials to the marketing of finished products, meets the increasingly demanding requirements of consumers in the cosmetics market.
