L’Oréal has committed to reduce its water consumption by 60% per finished product by 2020, compared to 2005. To achieve this goal, the Group is undertaking multiple actions: optimising consumption and developing projects to treat, recycle and reuse water at its production sites.

In 2018, L’Oréal continued to implement its sustainable sourcing policy for renewable raw materials, strengthening it with the support of the NGO Rainforest Alliance.

In the face of the climate emergency, the Group has committed to balance its residual CO2 emissions (Scope 1 and 2, downstream transport and finished products) by the end of 2020, in order to become a Carbon Balanced company. This ambition reinforces L’Oréal’s low carbon strategy, which takes a dual approach to reducing the Group’s carbon footprint – lowering the emissions linked to its industrial and logistics activities while balancing residual emissions.

In 2019, 59% of raw materials used in L’Oréal's products were renewable, meaning coming mostly from plant origin. This represents approximately 1,600 ingredients from nearly 350 plant species sourced in over a hundred countries. 68% of these renewable ingredients are derived from sources certified as sustainable.
