50% recycled materials in the carton packaging of the Orange Livebox 4

Ecodesign involves integrating environmental protection throughout the life cycle of products and services. This approach reduces their environmental impact from the creation stage by taking into account the consumption of raw materials and energy, discharges into the natural environment and their effects on climate and biodiversity.

Livebox 4 is a perfect illustration of an ecodesigned product: in a more compact size, disassembly and reassembly are made easier by no soldered or glued components, thus simplifying recycling. Its carton packaging, FSC approved (Forest Stewardship Council), is manufactured using cardboard from sustainably managed forests and uses vegetable-based inks. 50% of it is formed using recycled materials and does not exceed one third of the weight of the product.

Learn about the Priceless Planet Coalition, with Mastercard!

Mastercard announced the launch of the Priceless Planet Coalition, a platform to unite corporate sustainability efforts and make meaningful investments to preserve the environment.Together with partners the Priceless Planet Coalition is pledging to plant 100 million trees over five years. Large scale reforestation programs need to be executed carefully, with consideration given to a number of factors including local climate, adverse biodiversity impacts, lax or poor forest management practices, unintended future deforestation, risk of reversal, and unintended social impacts. Mastercard has selected global environmental organizations Conservation International and World Resources Institute (WRI) to lead the tree planting efforts. Working closely with local and indigenous communities, Conservation International has protected or restored over 6 million square kilometers of land and sea across more than 70 countries

L’Oreal’s Brand BioTherm is PRESERVING THE OCEANS WITH WATER LOVERS

The mission of the Water Lovers program is developing innovative processes for the conservation of the world’s oceans. As a first step, the brand wanted to embrace change itself, by making a commitment to have zero negative impact on water resources by 2025. Another major element of the brand’s commitment is for its formulations to preserve water resources – a requirement of every new product launched by Biotherm. Biotherm uses recycled materials as often as possible, and at every stage of the life-cycles of its products. This year, 100% of the PET plastic used in its products will be from recycled sources. A perfect example is the WaterLover Sun Milk range, with a base formula that is 97% biodegradable, along with bottles that are made from 100% recycled plastic and are themselves fully recyclable, these sunscreen products are designed to minimize their impact on water resources and aquatic life.
