We are proud to be a human-scale company, creating local jobs. Every day, our employees are committed to providing excellent products and service. Our headquarters - home to our Research & Development laboratory, as well as our marketing, administrative, and sales departments - has been built to earthquake- and hurricane-proof standards. Particular attention has been paid to thermal insulation to optimize energy savings, and a rainwater collection system saves thousands of liters of water every year. By internalizing our Research & Development, marketing, regulatory, quality, supply chain, and sales teams, we maintain full control over every stage of our products’ lifecycle, from conception to delivery. |

Naturalness of our formulasToday, 87% of our cosmetic products and fragrances comprise at least 80% ingredients of natural origin. We continuously refine our ingredient selection criteria to ensure our products align with evolving consumer expectations for health and safety. |
Regulatory monitoringWe also maintain a proactive regulatory monitoring system, closely tracking legislative developments in the cosmetics sector, to continuously re-evaluate and adapt our formulas in line with the most rigorous standards and future challenges. |
Our processesWe combine traditions with the latest industrial innovation technologies to develop manufacturing processes that preserve the benefits of natural ingredients. Our products are 100% made in France, and our manufacturing sites, dedicated to hygiene and care, are certified to the most demanding standards: ISO 22716 for good manufacturing practices, thus ensuring the quality, safety and traceability of every product manufactured. |
PackagingUnnecessary packaging is avoided wherever possible. Most of our products are available without outer cases and come in glass containers, whose packaging is infinitely recyclable and significantly reduces environmental impact. All these initiatives reflect our commitment to delivering products that are effective, safe, and environmentally responsible. |
The transportation of our products
In 2021, the strategic decision to relocate our logistics site to mainland France became an obvious choice. This move was guided by our desire to be more responsive to our distributors and partners, and above all to bring production, storage and consumption locations closer together. As a result, we have reduced delivery times while optimizing the efficiency of our supply chain. By centralizing our operations on the European continent, we are now in a better position to meet our customers’ growing enthusiasm for the brand, while respecting our commitment to preserve the environment. We selected a logistics partner deeply committed to “slow logistics” solutions, and for whom sustainable packaging played a crucial role in advancing more environmentally and socially responsible logistics practices.

Since February 2024, we have been using Korrvu® Slow Packaging for our B2C e-commerce shipments of Ligne St Barth products. Available in two formats, this innovative packaging utilizes a plastic film to suspend and securely center items within the carton. This efficient, high-quality solution has so far allowed us to deliver shipments damage-free. This packaging offers numerous advantages in terms of manipulation and environmental impact: No need for cushioning (even for glass containers). Reduced cardboard volume, leading to lower storage and transportation requirements (saving 1 m³ of padding for every 149 Korrvu® boxes). Made from 100% recyclable cardboard containing over 50% recycled material. The risk of breakage is drastically reduced, eliminating the need for reshipping. RESY-approved for recycling, Korrvu® packaging can be recycled in the paper waste stream. Fold-flat design minimizes storage or disposal space. Also reusable for return shipments, it minimizes waste at both ends of the distribution cycle. |
Ligne St Barth is committed to continuing to reduce its environmental footprint through the use of eco-responsible packaging. This includes using recyclable materials and increasing the proportion of recycled content, as well as implementing solutions to minimize the use of secondary packaging. Ligne St Barth intends to maintain its commitment to the development of natural, high-performance formulas. The company will continue to invest in the capabilities of its R&D laboratory, which focuses on identifying and integrating innovative sustainable ingredients while prioritizing environmentally friendly raw materials sourced through responsible practices. The objective is to guarantee high-performance products while maintaining an eco-design approach.

Finally, we aim to raise awareness among all our staff and encourage them to adopt more sustainable behaviors.

Engaged in the island’s social fabric, our teams regularly take part in local sporting and cultural events. We are committed to our local community. We strongly believe in the importance of supporting and empowering our local initiatives. We therefore wish to continue sponsoring local events, as they play a key role in the social cohesion and well-being of the island's population. These events promote physical activity and bring different generations together around a common theme.
