Our Process
MONQ’s process is thoughtful and methodical. We start with nature and science. We use proven methods, such as gas chromatography and mass spectrometry, to determine the exact physical and chemical profile of hundreds of essential oils and the plants they are derived from. Using that information, MONQ scientists map potential pairings. Then, the most viable and potent formulations are tested to create synergistic, powerful blends.
Find
Our botanicals are ethically sourced from around the world. MONQ scientists have traveled the globe, meeting with tribal leaders, healers, clinicians, and scientists to find the purest botanicals in their native environments. We follow the plants from their source, through the distillation process, to our private lab, ensuring responsible and ethical sourcing from start to finish. All the while, we rely on ancient wisdom and modern technology to ensure we find unique and profound ingredients as the foundation for all MONQ products.
Mix
Building on quality ingredients, MONQ scientists create synergistic blends. In the MONQ lab, our scientists map the chemical and wellness profiles of each ingredient. Those ingredients are then meticulously paired to create blends, the properties of which synergistically combine to bring calm, wellness and peace to everyday life.
Make
Once MONQ scientists precisely blend oils to create the perfect formulation, the blends are tested and paired with optimal delivery technology. Our engineering team seeks out the latest innovations as inspiration for new diffuser technology to create sustainable products to match the MONQ natural wellness lifestyle. After using our products, MONQ customers and study participants report experiencing changes to mood, decreased discomfort, enhanced meditation, and many other wellness benefits.
