A new social chapter: Les Paillettes Vertes joins forces with Fondation Eben-Hézer

Temps de lecture : 3 minutes

From day one, the Les Paillettes Vertes adventure has never been about simply selling household products or natural cosmetics. Our driving force, our “why”, has always been to build a company that makes sense. An ecological sense, of course, by fighting against single-use plastic and chemical components, but also and above all a deep human and living sense.

Today, we are particularly pleased and moved to announce that we have reached a milestone that we have long dreamed of, and which is a real achievement for us.

Since mid-March our stock has moved to the Fondation Eben-Hézer Lausanne. To whom we entrust the management of our logistics.

From now on, your favorite products will be packaged by the incredible teams at this Lausanne institution dedicated to inclusion.

More than a move, a social commitment in Lausanne

Growing is a challenge for any small artisan company. Until now, every order, every box and every label was handled in-house. As your loyalty grew, so did our handling and packaging requirements.

Rather than turning to cold, depersonalized industrial logistics solutions, we have chosen to delegate this part of our business to a partner that embodies our values of proximity and solidarity: Fondation Eben-Hézer.

This choice enables us to transform a growth constraint into an opportunity to make a concrete social impact in the heart of our city.

Who is Fondation Eben-Hézer?

A benchmark institution in the Lausanne region, the Fondation Eben-Hézer provides support for people with disabilities or difficulties in their lives. Through its workshops, it offers a rewarding environment where employees can develop their skills, regain their independence and play an active part in local economic life.

By entrusting the packaging of our products and the preparation of your parcels to Eben-Hézer’s workshops, we transform a logistical necessity into a real lever for inclusion.

From now on, every time you receive a Les Paillettes Vertes package, you’ll know that it has been prepared with care by hands that, thanks to this work, find a recognized and valued place in our society. For us, this is the definition of social impact in Lausanne.

What’s changing (and what isn’t)

It is vital for us to maintain the transparency that is our strength.

Here’s what this partnership means in concrete terms:

• Production remains 100% handcrafted in our Lausanne laboratory.

• Storage and packaging are delegated to Eben-Hézer, which now manages logistics.

• A double impact: your purchase becomes “doubly responsible”. You protect the environment with our near-zero-waste ecological solutions, and you directly support local social and community employment.

Why this choice makes us so happy

Delegating handling was an operational necessity, to ensure that we didn’t spend more time packing boxes than imagining new sustainable solutions.

Doing so with Eben-Hézer is an immense source of joy. It allows us to focus on developing our business, knowing that our value chain contributes to a fairer, more humane economy.

The first parcels have already left the Eben-Hézer workshops. What pride and joy!

It’s a source of immense pride to see our values embodied in every aspect of our business. This success is also your success. We thank you for making this wish come true, for continuing to support us in this transition, and for growing with us a company that cares for the world, one gesture at a time.

We look forward to welcoming you backstage at Les Paillettes!
