Environmental Sustainability

• Considering the entire lifecycle of our products and resources to help inform environmentally conscious product creation.
• Creating products using consciously chosen ingredients, keeping both people and the planet in mind. For example, new g&h rinse-off formulas are made with biodegradable formulas, making them safer for our waterways.

• Using less plastic when possible. We’re also striving to use more post-consumer recycled (PCR) content and to design packaging that makes recycling simpler. For example:
  • g&h body and baby care product bottles contain 30 percent post-consumer recycled plastic¹. Bottles and cartons are recyclable, too².
  • Artistry Skin Nutrition™ packaging globally eliminated 21% of plastic compared to previous Artistry skincare product lines³. Annual plastic use for all of the line’s SKUs was reduced by 288,047 pounds (130,930 Kgs) while delivering the same amount of product.
• We’re reducing paper packaging. For example:
  • Artistry™ Skin Nutrition packaging globally saves 52,636 pounds (23,925 Kgs) of paper annually⁴ by eliminating most inserts with information now printed inside cartons.
• Reducing packaging waste. For example, many of our plastic bottle manufacturing lines regrind and reuse their manufacturing scrap.
