CSR Commitment
A CSR approach
rooted in our DNA
As an independent group based in the Tarn region, we have developed our activities around a strong conviction: scents influence our emotions and behaviors.
This belief guides our scientific approach and strengthens our determination to act for lasting well-being, for people as well as for animals. This DNA naturally leads us to integrate social, societal, and environmental responsibility into every decision we make.
Today, we structure our CSR approach around a clear and committed ambition,
built on five pillars that guide our actions and our long-term development.

Founded in 1996, the Phodé Group is built on strong values.
True to our culture of creativity, commitment, and sharing, we work toward sustainable livestock farming that respects animal welfare through our Animal Care activity; toward functional, natural, and pleasurable nutrition through our Human Care activity; and toward a pleasant olfactory environment through our Air Care activity.
A CSR approach to align
performance and responsibility
Since our beginnings, we have been convinced that economic performance must go hand in hand with our social, societal, and environmental responsibilities.
This commitment is reflected in our industrial choices, our sourcing strategy, and our strong local roots in the Tarn region.
We have chosen to structure this vision through an ambitious CSR approach.
Its objective is to build sustainable growth that respects the women and men who drive our company, is attentive to our environmental impact, and creates value for all our stakeholders.
People
Provide a safe working environment that encourages engagement and professional development, enabling everyone to contribute to the company’s success.
Innovation
A historic driver of Phodé, innovation lies at the core of our solutions. It embodies our ambition to combine performance, sustainability, and purpose.
Customer Orientation
Ensure excellence in our support and impeccable product quality through our FAMI-QS, ISO 22 000 and Ecocert standards, while contributing to our customers’ sustainability challenges.
Environment
Continue to reduce our ecological footprint, resource consumption, CO₂ emissions, materials management and implement concrete actions to preserve resources and ecosystems.
Independence
Preserve our strategic freedom and the sustainability of our expertise through our independent business model. Our presence in Terssac, where our laboratories and production units are located, reflects this independence and our commitment to “Made in France.”
The five pillars of our CSR approach
Human capital is at the heart of our future and a key focus of the company. We therefore chose to bring our employees together around a shared project: integrating a values-based management approach. This choice aims to create a working environment conducive to individual and collective fulfillment.
