Sustainability

The Camellia Oil industry is significant for its eco-friendly (green) development, retaining farmland, cultural norms, and protecting resources.

In an effort to retain natural resources, ecological balance, and quality of life, GSX Camellia Oil strives to improve the environment and society by promoting economic, environmental, social, and cultural well-being, offset negative impacts, and improving sustainability and economic return to the camellia plantations and surrounding communities.

Our goal is to limit the waste of precious resources and avoid dumping trash into water supplies or landfills. With sustainability in mind, business and personal decisions are made in consideration with long-term effects, including the quality of life for future generations. 

Camellia Trees are grown on the hills and mountains in China, which belong to forest lands. Growing camellias for oil production does not compete for arable lands. Instead, it can help decrease soil erosion in hilly regions to maintain the integrity and viability of the farmlands, improve air quality, and generate local farmers' income.
