ACT OF CARE
What we do, our commitments ...
The choice of materials
Material is a major ecological issue. Finding the right sustainable resource and favouring recycled or clean materials. We have a large library of clean, certified materials and local sourcing, which allows us to expand our offers in close trade with neighbouring countries.
Reduce waste
Reducing the production of waste both in the use of the product itself and its manufacture.
Include recyclability
Recyclability and product end of life. The major challenge for 2022 is to think about how to include this in the design and industrial specifications.
Even further
The ambition for 2030 is to go even further and design through the prism of regenerative design. How can manufacturing our products be beneficial to the Ecosystem?
2 - Ethical Shopping
At ACT BEAUTY, the purchasing vision revolves around anticipating orders and customer needs. At the heart of the company’s activities and the main source of negative social and environmental impacts, the purchasing function has become the priority for our sustainable developmental policy. Thus, employees in this sector are encouraged and supported by management to integrate CSR into their jobs. This approach to responsible purchasing is an aspiration shared by all company employees, who are all motivated in the overall consideration of CSR issues.
This policy represents the commitment of our company and our suppliers to develop a responsible purchasing policy operated through a sustainable relationship between stakeholders.
Our commitments
1 – Protect the consumer through quality purchases that are not dangerous to health, tested by our office located in SHENZHEN and the external INTERTEK laboratories.
2 – Keep ourselves informed about customer and consumer satisfaction regarding the quality of the services and products provided by the company by sending out an annual customer satisfaction survey.
3 – Protect the environment by favouring sustainable purchases such as recycled and eco-labelled raw materials.
4 – Contribute to the local development of territories by supporting the economical inclusion and work of people with disabilities.
5 – Promote the purchase of raw materials and manufacturing plants in Europe to reduce greenhouse gases generated by transporting our goods.

3 - Green Logistics
Our goal is to limit environmental impact by remaining competitive and controlling deadlines. We strive to use all possible ecological methods to provide a sustainable transport service and to adapt these measures to all aspects of our daily operations. We have a wide range of shipping services. For the delivery of our goods from Asia, we use the latest generation of Triple E container ships, which are optimised to be less energy-intensive and to pollute less.
Post shipping is by river (80% savings on road transport) and transfer of containers from inland terminals to the warehouse by EURO 6 standard vehicle. Our storage warehouse is self-sufficient in energy thanks to its 1812 solar panels, rainwater harvesting, waste sorting and recovery. Responsiveness and flexibility are the watchwords that our teams swear by. We implement solutions as part of a voluntary commitment to reduce C02 emissions and plan to anticipate your needs in order to optimise transport, avoid air transport, synchronise your production and combine with other cargo.
