Our green efforts

We place importance on the origins of our raw cosmetic ingredients with emphasis on sourcing from suppliers and manufacturers who have active roles in the preservation of the environment and eco-system. Our raw cosmetic ingredients especially the certified organic ones are sourced from manufacturers or farms that have met the requirements of the various certifying bodies such as USDA, ACO, ECOCERT and Soil Association.
 

UPCYCLED INGREDIENTS

We source ingredients that are considered waste in the industry. Our cranberry and raspberry seed oils are made from seeds that are actually by-products from the fruit juice industry. The seeds are collected and cold pressed into oils. We will continue our search for upcycled ingredients to reduce waste.

We use glass, PET and BPA-free packaging (which are recyclables) for all our cosmetic applications and encourage customers to recycle their used packaging at recycling facilities. We do not issue printed invoices and have opted for an electronic invoice for all customers orders. Your orders are packed with reused/recyclable packagings as we believe in a circular economy. Our products do not come in external packaging to reduce waste. We also actively source recycled/recyclable packagings for our shipping requirements. Plastics, glass and papers used after productions are recycled or reused.

Our commitment in giving back to Society

We contribute regularly to various charity organisations such as Bone Marrow Donor Programme Singapore, Food from the Heart, SPCA and WWF. We have sponsored two girls under World Vision for their education, health and basic needs. We actively work with Fair Trade organisations to supply us with cosmetics ingredients (organic Cocoa and Shea butters).

We are currently raising funds for the conservation of forests under WWF Singapore. You can visit our fundraising page to find out more: https://fundraise.wwf.sg/balmbotanique.
