Essential oils distiller ÉCONOMUSÉE® and Boutique
BoreA DécouVERTE, Distiller Essential oils distiller ÉCONOMUSÉE®, is a non-profit organization offering tourism learning experiences in the art of distilling aromatic plants and exploring the boreal forest. The ÉCONOMUSÉE® showcases BoreA Canada’s circular economy model, which operates within an eco-responsible and sustainable framework. As part of its DNA, the company adheres to the principles of circular economy by repurposing unused products from forestry companies, utilizing steam from cogeneration plants, and fostering the involvement of local communities.
Nothing is wasted, and everything must be reused
“Nothing is wasted, and everything must be reused” is the guiding principle behind essential oil extraction. BoreA Canada ensures the valorization of forestry company residues within a 50 km radius for its activities.
This latest initiative also aligns with the social aspect of sustainable tourism.
Our circular economy ecosystem is built on five (5) pillars: eco-responsible processes, giving objects a second life, human valorization, knowledge sharing, and corporate social responsibility (CSR).
It is also important to note that among all businesses in Quebec Province, BoreA DécouVERTE is the only one located in the Eeyou Istchee – James Bay territory to distill such high-quality products within a circular economy framework. Additionally, it is the only company offering tours of its industrial facilities and welcoming the general public.
