Olivier Duncas, french entrepreneur, is your single point of contact for any enquiries or order. First of all, we make sure to understand your need, then we prepare a quotation and inform you of the lead time. And because we know it is important to test beforehand, we are more than happy to send you samples so you can see our quality up close and personal.

Thanks to our constant contact with the plants, we can control quality and make sure that chitosan properties suit with client requirements. Sometimes you may need a trial and error approach to get the proper formula, in this case don’t hesitate to ask more samples and keep in touch with us… until everything is perfect !

Olivier lived in 3 continents, gathering experience in international trade. As a global entrepreneur, he thinks that his greatest challenge is to overcome psychic distance between countries.
