READ ALL ABOUT IT

Minimal packaging with maximal recyclables.

For over 20 years, our packaging decisions have been guided
by responsible principles and creative passion.

• Reduce the size, weight and production processes of packaging whenever possible

• Offer packaging that can be widely recycled whenever possible

• Use as much recycled content/PCR as commercially possible without
affecting the efficacy of the product

• Challenge suppliers to innovate their packaging using a sustainability lens

THERE'S MORE

We are proud to have been the first beauty company to use 100% post-consumer recycled PET in
a product package. Today, 95% of PET bottles and jars contain 100% post-consumer recycled resin
and more than 80% of our HDPE bottles are minimum of 80% PCR resin³.

Our approach
to carbon neutrality.

We use 100% renewable electricity fueled by our
3.6 acre, 1.52MW onsite solar array, plus wind power
credits and offsets. In 2007, we were the first beauty
company to begin manufacturing with 100% wind power
at its primary facility. Our primary manufacturing facility
has also achieved Zero Industrial Waste to Landfill status.

THERE'S MORE

We purchase carbon offsets to neutralize remaining emissions:

• The portion of the electricity and natural gas consumed in the
manufacturing of our products by our third-party suppliers
who do not already offset their carbon emissions
(Project: Panama Wind Energy Project in Maharashtra, India)

• Aveda U.S. is funding an emissions reduction project to offset CO2^e
emissions as a result of home deliveries made from our Aveda fulfillment
centers in 12 markets, to our customers’ deliver address (excludes buy
online and pickup in-store and same-day delivery) (Project: Willits Wood
Improved Forest Management Program)

• Propellants in our aerosol hairsprays (Project: Panama Wind Energy
Project in Maharashtra, India)
