Sustainability. Intention.
We strive to incorporate ecologically sustainable practices into our lives and work, including:
Power: Wild Oils is off-grid and uses 100% solar-powered electricity.
Ecological Balance: As custodians of the land, we practice land repair and regeneration, through collecting seed, then propagating and planting local tree species.
Our Wild Oils property is registered under a voluntary ‘Land for Wildlife’ conservation agreement, where native flora and fauna are cared for.
We follow organic principles and practices, wherever possible.
Plantation Grown, Not Wild-Harvested: Rather than wild-harvesting these precious plants (some of which are rare and threatened) from their natural environments, we collect seed, then propagate plants to use in our plantations. This ensures that wild populations are preserved, and our actions are not negatively impacting on these special Australian native plants.
Community: When we buy essential oils, (which we cannot grow in our Tasmanian climate), from other suppliers, we choose to support small, family-run, ethical businesses within the Australian industry.
Packaging: We use glass and aluminium containers for our products, plus cardboard and paper by-products for packaging, prioritising re-usable, recyclable and compostable materials.
