Oysters are very sensitive to environmental factors. For their health, they need sufficient natural nutrients and clean water with constant temperatures. Only strong, healthy oysters are able to produce pearls.
All pearl farmers understand that responsible management of the ecosystem is the foundation of their pearl farming. It is therefore not surprising that all the big names in the pearl industry are rigorously committed to protecting the oceans. We are too.
Pearl farms are located on remote island areas. They improve the living standards of the local population because the farmers support the local health and education system.
Young men and women have been trained for various jobs in the pearl industry. For example, local Indonesian women now work as pearl operators. Not long ago, such jobs were reserved exclusively for foreign specialists.
Many highly welcome jobs have been created for regional village communities and this has stopped the exodus of the local population.
