Respectful Of Resources

Our production is all about doing more and better with less. We actively support water conservation by reducing full lifecycle H2O use via reformulations and formats and by 2026, we strive towards implementing a new wastewater treatment technology to recover and reuse wastewater. Following our energy reduction plan, we have reduced our yearly energy consumption by 14%, our water consumption by 23% and our wastewater volume by 19% since 2010.

We have a set plan how to reduce waste to landfills to zero by 2025. In the US, we even generate our own solar energy, which we aim to expand at every opportunity.

What is green-e?

Our production is all about doing more and better with less. We replaced fossil fuels with green forms of energy – since 2019, all our US operated factories and owned offices are using 100% renewable electricity*, certified by Green-e.
Green-e® is a trusted global leader in clean energy and carbon offset certification. Since 1997, Green-e® has been a program of the nonprofit Center for Resource Solutions, based in San Francisco, CA.
The Green-e® Marketplace program verifies that the renewable electricity purchased meets the strict environmental and consumer protection standards of the Green-e® Energy certification programs respectively and that we purchase qualifying amounts relative to electricity usage.
* Electricity is one source of energy we use.
