Myriam Tellier, President and co-founder of Planette

Planette is a family-run SME in Laval, Quebec that specializes in the manufacture and distribution of household products based on Marseille soap with 72% olive oil. The mother-daughter duo has revived and modernized grandmother's recipes which, despite their proven effectiveness, have not been able to survive technological development and the current pace of life advocating ease and accessibility. Highly inspired by ancestral recipes, several years of research have allowed the company to reinvent its great classics so that they address the environmental issues of their time, as well as the level of performance needed by today's families.

Planette introduced Marseille soap 72% olive oil, a European natural soap made from olive oil, which is recognized for its miraculous cleansing, antiseptic, and degreasing properties. Not only are the company's products made from 100% natural ingredients, but their scents are made with essential oils chosen for their household properties, increasing their effectiveness in comparison to chemical products.
