About ECO. Modern Essentials
ECO. Modern Essentials is a Gold Coast based wellness brand specialising in 100% pure essential oils and blends to support overall health and wellbeing.
Our mission is to harness the healing power of aromatherapy, carried across generations around the world for thousands of years, and incorporate it into modern day living. With the rise of toxins and chemicals in our environment, the need for natural alternatives is becoming increasingly important. We hope to be at the forefront of holistic health by providing natural remedies for a range of health and lifestyle purposes.
Our aim is to simplify aromatherapy by sourcing and delivering pure essential oils and blends that are easy to use and incorporate into daily life. We strive to educate our community about the benefits and safe uses of essential oils, supported by both ancient traditional knowledge and recent scientific research. We work closely with our team of botanists, chemists and aromatherapists to develop the most effective essential oil blends and provide the best possible education on aromatherapy.
Our ingredients are harvested from ethical sources, ensuring social and environmental integrity. We source our ingredients from countries where native plants and trees grow best climatically and seasonally to bring you the highest quality essential oils, while preserving the cultural and historical integrity of the communities we work with. All of our essential oils are GC/MS tested before they are bottled to ensure the highest purity and quality of their chemical composition.
Our entire product range is Vegan, Cruelty free, Paraben free and SLS free. We do not test our ingredients, prototypes or finished products on animals. We also work closely with our outside suppliers to ensure they comply with our values and philosophy.
We work closely with our suppliers to limit unnecessary use of resources across our entire supply chain. We do our best to protect our environment by supporting environmentally friendly sourcing and manufacturing processes as well as reducing plastic from our product offering to packaging.
Our facilities are TGA compliant, Australian Certified Organic, GMP Compliant and are also audited regularly to maintain these high standard.
Essential oils are produced using three main methods.
Distilled. Most essential oils are produced via distillation. The process involves submerging plant material in water that is heated to produce steam. The steam is captured and cooled, resulting in essential oil and aromatic waters or hydrosols. Rose or lavender water are commonly used as a skin toner.
Cold pressed. Most citrus essential oils are produced via the cold pressed method. In the thick skin of citrus fruit there are little pockets of essential oil, you may have noticed when you cut into a citrus fruit the essential oil spraying out (and smelling divine). The essential oil is the plants’ way of defending the fruit from disease and other pests. In the cold extraction process the skin of the citrus fruit is cut by a machine and the essential is collected in sponges. This method is used because citrus essential oils are sensitive to heat and evaporate quickly.
Efleurage. A very gentle extraction method that was traditionally used for roses and other delicate florals. It was found that pressing plant material into fat could extract the essential oil of the plant. The essential oils were then extracted out of the fat with alcohol. This method tends to be very time consuming and expensive. Today plants can be immersed in a solvent or liquid CO2 and the essential oil is then separated out from the extraction medium.
