Reducing waste with L’OCCITANE
In today's world, any responsible company has a duty to do all it can to reduce waste and prevent pollution. The future of our planet depends on our actions today! At L'OCCITANE, we've been focusing on ways to reduce, reuse and recycle for many years, but there's still more we can do. And we're working on it!
More than 10 years of using recycled plastic bottles
L’OCCITANE truly commits to reducing waste and recycling as a brand locally and globally. We want to create a circular economy with the help of involved and innovative partners, multi-brand initiatives, but also and above all, our consumers. We have set a global goal to use 100% recycled plastic in 100% of our products by 2025. Discover our sustainable and plastic-free beauty alternatives including eco-refills, solid shampoos and soap bars.
Save the Earth and save money with Refills!
For over 20 years, we have offered refills as part of our commitment to reducing waste. With a wide range of over 20 products offered in a refill format, you can save up to 78% packaging weight vs the original when you switch to these wallet-friendly Refills!
Zero ingredients wasted
An important part of reducing waste is making sure we make full use of the ingredients we harvest. Every part of our Almond and Shea nuts are used, including the shells, so that absolutely nothing goes to waste.
Removing what is not needed
Every little bit matters when it comes to reducing waste, which is why we have removed cellophane wrappers from our boxes. We have also printed usage instructions of our products on the inside of the boxes they come in, reducing the need for an extra product leaflet.
