Why is B Corp important to us?

More than twenty years ago, we launched our first upcycled ingredient, derived from a side stream of the food industry, paving the way as a pioneer in applying circular economy principles to the beauty business. Today, the B Corp certification comes as a powerful endorsement of our sustainability journey to becoming a leading company in circular beauty and driving positive change in the beauty industry.

Becoming a B Corp has been achieved through a long-term and company-wide sustainability approach, guided by three core pillars:

  • Leading circular beauty: We are committed to increasing the share of circularity across our value chain, respecting the limited resources of our planet.
  • Engaging in Climate action: We strive to reduce our GHG emissions across our value chain while continuing to grow the business and support wetland restoration to minimize our environmental footprint.
  • Promoting social responsibility: We ensure health and safety for everyone in the workplace, practise responsible sourcing and due diligence in the supply chain, and maintains a diverse, equal, and inclusive product portfolio and marketing communication.

Creating a more sustainable future is the foundation of all our actions and our customers can trust that by choosing LUMENE, CUTRIN, and IDA WARG Beauty brands, their purchase supports a company committed to creating high-performing beauty products that also consider society.
