After South America with Peru and West Africa with Burkina Faso, Greentech begins a new convention with Madagascar.
Greentech is closely working with the University of Antsiranana and has equipped a research laboratory, specifically for the development of new cosmetic active compounds. Greentech has supplied all necessary equipment for plant extraction and analytical control of these cosmetic ingredients. A new common structure, GREENMadag, has been especially created for the development of new actives from local flora rich in medicinal applications. As well, an educational programme for the development of competent technicians is in progress. The first steps of development of cosmetic ingredients and extraction assays will be realised in the GREENMadag laboratory and then scaledup phases will be performed in Greentech’s laboratory. In this way, there will be a new added-value market for local producers of raw materials, new employment for engineers and technicians in Madagascar and thus new income for local communities.
