Our participation in the Sustainable Cosmetics Summit enriches our strategic thinking at a key moment in our growth
The 2024 version of the forum looks at 4 topics of interest which are recent developments, green ingredients, the impact of personal care products on marine ecosystems, and ethical packaging. The following topics are particularly interesting to us: product design for circularity, supply chain mapping for traceability, emerging sustainable ingredients, advances in botanical ingredients, and ethical sourcing of natural ingredients.
