A structured,
integrated,
scalable approach

At Parfex, CSR is an integral part of our business, supported by our Integrated Management System (IMS). This system allows us to manage our overall performance, economic, social, and environmental, in a methodical, transparent, and continuously improving way.

This dynamic aligns with our parent company, Croda, with whom we share commitments, tools, and ambitions. Integrating CSR at all decision-making levels anchors our business for the long term, strengthens partner trust, and builds a more agile, fair, and resilient company.

Our four pillars of csr

Climate and land positive

Committing to climate, biodiversity and natural resources.

At Parfex, preserving biodiversity and ecosystems is at the heart of our environmental strategy. We act locally and globally to protect natural environments, reduce our footprint and promote sustainable resource management. 

Our commitments:

Protect biodiversity: installation of a bee sanctuary and compliance with international regulations such as CITES, the Nagoya Protocol and EU Regulation 2023/1115 (EUDR) on deforestation-free supply chains.

Reduce consumption and enhance waste recovery: composting, recycling and integration of circular economy principles into our internal practices.

Eco-design responsible fragrances: sustainably sourced raw materials (RSPO, UEBT, etc.), strengthened traceability and limitation of substances of concern to reduce environmental impact.

Address climate change: comprehensive carbon footprint assessment, construction of sustainable buildings and use of hybrid vehicles to reduce impact across the value chain.
