From the beginning, LA MAISON DE L'ARGAN has committed itself to the Argan cause by creating and supporting feminine cooperatives in Morocco, thus, protecting a 800 000 ha Argan tree forest. Truly respectful of the millenary and traditional production "savoir-faire", LA MAISON DE L'ARGAN has developed unique patented extraction processes in order to increase the oil quality whilst contributing to the timelessness of a nature miracle.

To achieve the best Argan oil quality, LA MAISON DE L'ARGAN has set rigorous quality controls at every fabrication step, from the selection of Argan Nuts from the tree, to the oil extraction. Rigorously selected, the fruits of Argan undergo specific laboratory manufacturing processes to reach an incomparable quality whilst preserving its cosmetic virtues.

Katima'A formulas are designed in their own laboratory in France using a unique procedure that preserves all the qualities of the ingredients involved. This patented process has been created and perfected by their pharmacists. The fabrication method uses limited energy, water consumption as well as limited production waste. In this way it consumes 50 times less energy than the normal hot temperature manufacturing process commonly used by other companies.
