Our ESG Approach

The way we treat people and the environment matters to us! 

We know there is always more that can be done, and we continue to explore alternatives and options to make us even better in this area.

Environmental

  • We only use natural ingredients, ensuring they are sustainable and ethical.
  • We buy the best, and everything we include in our formulations has a specific purpose to naturally enhance the product. 
  • We partnership with Switch2Zero to offset the carbon footprint of our business, planting trees with every customer transaction to create a greener and more sustainable future. 
  • We work hard to reduce our waste and recycle all that we can. We use recycled, recyclable and biodegradable materials, including glass bottles and jars, where possible.
  • We strive to be the best we can when it comes to packaging our products and reducing waste. 
  • We are open minded to change and embrace new technologies.
