Why Aveda?
Net Zero.
Aveda purchases carbon offsets from NativeEnergy to balance the climate impact of our aerosol hairsprays, which are made by a third party supplier—not just for their manufacture, but also for the carbon emissions from transportation and use of these products as well.
Power of the Sun.
Aveda has pioneered the use of renewable energy since 2006, when they became the first beauty company to manufacture using 100% wind power (through the purchase of energy credits). Now, their new 2,900-panel solar array will power up to 50% of the manufacturing facility’s annual demand for energy, with the remainder powered by wind.
Caring.
Aveda has partnered with Charity:Water
to bring clean, safe drinking water to people in need
in India, Nepal, Madagascar and Ethiopia.
Packaging Pioneers.
Aveda is proud to have been the first beauty company using 100% post consumer recycled PET. Now more than 85% of their skin care and hair styling PET bottles and jars contain 100% post consumer recycled materials.
Sustainably Sourced.
Aveda works hard to ensure that ecological and cultural diversity is represented by responsibly sourcing key ingredients from different regions all over the world.
Cruelty Free.
Aveda was born cruelty free, never tested on animals. As of July 2019 all products manufactured are 100% vegan, with hopes to have all vegan products on shelves by 2022.
