We are constantly looking for ways to reduce the weight and volume of our packaging by adjusting cases, using less glass, and eliminating the need for interior spacers, leaflets and certain cases...

We are also actively working to reduce the use of plastic in our packaging by eliminating all unnecessary plastic packaging in our boxes and kits, switching to recycled plastic for the capsules of our 50 ml jars, and reducing the number of single-use capsules in our jars by 1/3...

Furthermore, to minimise the consumption of new resources, we favour responsible materials such as recycled glass and paper from sustainably managed forests.

Give your Clarins containers a new life!

Allowing you to reuse or refill our products is one of our ambitions. Since 2018, our Treatment Fragrances have featured pumps that can be unscrewed for refilling, and since 2020, we have supplied our boutiques with the Eco-Bar which is dedicated to refilling our Eau Dynamisante and Eau Ressourçante.

And that’s only the beginning... Various refillable containers are currently in development, both for your skincare and your makeup.

Right from the design phase of our products, we systematically prioritise recyclable and recycled materials.

70% of our packaging is made of glass or cardboard, materials that are fully recyclable. And we already use 30% recyclable materials in our packaging.

By 2025, 100% of our packaging will be recyclable or refillable. The same high standards and control is applied in our production plants, where 100% of our industrial waste is now reused.

We are also gradually implementing systems for collecting used packaging in our stores. We invite you to join our sustainable initiative by dropping off your products after they are finished at participating department stores.

Clarins' fourth commitment is directly linked to nature, which has always inspired us and provided us with our most precious ingredients.

Respecting it means favouring sustainable farming based on the idea of doing more with less - the very principle of the circular economy: promoting sustainable agriculture, taking only the parts of plants that are not essential for their regrowth, favouring wild harvesting that respects ecosystems, reusing industrial waste (such as seeds or husks) to transform them into active ingredients... All of these values influence us in our daily work.
