Commitment to Environmental Protection and Sustainability
At the heart of our corporate culture is a steadfast commitment to environmental protection and sustainability. To uphold our responsibility to the environment, we ensure that our care products are manufactured without microplastics.
To make it easy for our customers to identify microplastic-free products, we have introduced our "MICROPLASTIC FREE - formulation without microplastics" environmental seal. This symbol guarantees that our products do not contain any microplastics.
Microplastics are generally defined as plastic particles smaller than 5 millimeters that are not water-soluble or biodegradable. These are categorized into primary and secondary microplastics.
Primary microplastics are industrially produced particles or granulates in their final form, often used in plastic bottles or added to care products like exfoliants and toothpaste for texture and shine.
Secondary microplastics result from the breakdown of larger plastic items, such as bags or bottles, due to environmental factors like sunlight and wave action. Tire abrasion on roads is another source of secondary microplastics.

Why We Avoid Microplastics
Plastic waste poses a significant threat to our environment, particularly marine life. Large debris can entangle creatures like seals and turtles, causing injury or death. Microplastics, while less visible, are equally harmful.
Marine organisms that ingest microplastics exhibit behavioral changes and elevated inflammation. Microplastics also absorb toxins, which then enter the food chain, affecting both wildlife and humans who consume seafood.
Recognizing microplastic-free products can be challenging. Ingredient lists are not always clear. Our seal of quality ensures you can easily identify products that do not contain microplastics, helping you make sustainable choices.
We are dedicated to offering products that are safe for you and the environment, supporting a healthier planet for future generations.
