Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Our commitment to minimising our environmental impact.
Since our beginnings, Clarins has been on a journey to passing on a more beautiful planet by working on respecting nature and biodiversity.
Through less packaging, refillable product, and favouring more sustainable materials, we’re steadily progressing towards our goals.
Reduce
We're constantly looking for ways to reduce the weight and volume of our packaging to help preserve nature's precious resources.
40%
Our glass jars contain at least 40% recycled glass while their lids are made from recycled plastic.
47%
In 2023, we succeeded in halving the weight of our sample tubes by 47%.
100%
of the paper used from our boxes comes from sustainably-managed forests
Reuse
Since 2018, we have introduced refillable solutions across multiple product lines. We're aiming for 25% of our turnover to come from refillable products by 2030.
We are saving resources by using:
67% less glass, 40% less cardboard, and 42% less plastic by refilling.*

Recycle
From the outset we design our packaging with sustainability in mind, prioritising the use of recyclable glass and recycled plastics where possible.
Today
70%
of our packaging is recyclable, with a goal of 100% in 2030.
By 2030
we aim for at least
1/3
of our plastic to be sourced from recycled materials.
