Each plant organ has its own aromas and properties which it expresses when infused... For over 30 years, we have been extracting the active ingredients from plants in our workshops in Wavrechain-sous-Denain in the Hauts-de-France region of France, promoting French know-how.
True to our naturo origins, our extraction process for liquid forms uses a single solvent: water. In accordance with the requirements of the European Pharmacopoeia, we use osmosed water to produce our fluid extracts in drinkable ampoules: obtained by a filtration process, this water, which is very pure and low in mineral content, becomes a solvent which does not interact with the plants.
To create ampoules or single-dose ampoules, we use dried, pre-cut plants: this is called «coupé menu», as opposed to powders or dried plant extracts. To capture the active principles of these plants, we use an authentic two-stage extraction method: Decoction - Infusion, which optimizes the return of the best of the plants
The Decoction:
It extracts molecules of interest from the hardest parts of plants: roots and bark. Plants in cut form are plunged into a tank filled with osmosis water, boiling at a temperature of 100°C. Boiling is maintained for a few minutes to soften the plant pieces. This completes the first part of the extraction process
The Infusion :
This second phase, which immediately follows the first, extracts the active ingredients remaining on the soft parts of the plants: leaves and flowers. The plants remain immersed in hot water at a temperature of over 80°C, without boiling. This ensures complete extraction of all the plant's active ingredients.
Our know-how and in-depth knowledge of plants enable us to fine-tune the parameters of time and temperature to optimize these two extraction stages, and collect a maximum of active ingredients without damaging the plant and thus altering its benefits. This expertise enables us to obtain formulas that are, for the most part, alcohol-free, colorant-free and preservative-free*
In accordance with current regulations on organic production
How do you know how much plant material is in a vial?
In our constant concern for transparency in plant dosage, we indicate the quantity of plants used in our organic fluid extracts by means of the Dry Plant Equivalent, or DPE. The DPE corresponds to the precise quantity of dry plants used in the water, in relation to the daily dose, for example per 15 ml drinkable ampoule.
For effective formulas, we guarantee some of the highest Dry Plant Equivalents (DPE), while ensuring a pleasant taste for regular consumption and compliance with treatment durations
Pure black radish juice : Regional emblem
While reading about the benefits of plants, René HAUSSIN, our founder, discovered Black Radish. In 1974, he made it available to everyone by perfecting the technique of cold mechanical extraction of Pur Jus and its packaging in drinkable ampoules. Since its creation, we have perpetuated this process, which respects the raw material and guarantees an organic Pur Jus with no alcohol, coloring or preservatives*.
Our Organic Black Radish Pure Vegetable Juice is made from fresh vegetables, washed, peeled, crushed and pressed using mechanical means only, without heating (except for the sterilization stage) or dilution. A seasonal and local product par excellence, Black Radish is harvested fresh between September and January, just 12km from our factory, from our partner farmer

To each his own conditioning!
For your daily consumption, the choice is yours!
The glass ampoule, a neutral and mostly recyclable material, is the original format for fluid extracts, guaranteeing good preservation of extracts and stability of formulas over time.
The single-dose, made of plastic (PP) and mostly recyclable, is unbreakable, practical and easy to take everywhere for on-the-go use. Empty single-doses are injection-molded by a partner in the Rhône-Alpes region, then filled and packaged in our workshops
