SUSTAINABILITY OF HEALING AND FRAGRANCE: ESSENTIAL OIL INDUSTRY REVIEW

Abstract

These days when the world's resources are in danger, the resources of many products are slowly being depleted. Essential oils and medicinal aromatic plants are also among the products whose resource is depleted. This study aims to analyze the statements, studies, and awareness of companies that trade in the field of essential oils on sustainability. For this purpose, medicinal aromatic plants whose sources are in danger and companies operating in this field have been determined. Then, the sustainability statements of these companies were analyzed and their studies on this subject were examined. When researching endangered oils reveals that some plants such as sandalwood, frankincense, myrrh, and rosewood have emerged because they were collected from limited sources in regions of the world suffering from severe drought conditions. During the company analysis, titles such as responsible production, organic agriculture, certification, environmentally-friendly transportation and packaging, and the importance given to animal rights were taken as a basis. The awareness of companies in these areas was examined. As a result of the evaluation of the information found, it has been seen that the companies do not have many statements about sustainability in general. In addition, it has been determined that there is not much difference between exporting and non-exporting firms.
