When people talk about doing good for the planet, that’s just what they’re doing, talking. It’s easy to say that you always recycle or choose sustainable products and then go about your day doing what you used to do. When we at Partner.Co talk about doing good for the planet, we’re actively doing good for the planet. It’s not only the right thing to do, it’s good business, too.
We all must share our limited natural resources on the planet to ensure the next generation, and those beyond, still have access to the same materials and resources. Our company’s desire to partner with the planet is a guiding principle. We have the power to protect this precious place, and we’re doing everything we can to do so.
To protect our planet and reduce our environmental impact as a global entity, we remain committed to reducing our carbon footprint by increasing recycling rates and utilizing more sustainable alternatives to existing packaging options. Our goal remains the same: to produce products with high-impact benefits and a low environmental impact.
Creating Thoughtful Packaging
We’re always exploring new ways to reduce packaging materials and incorporate recycled materials into the development of our packaging. Through our efforts in recent years, we’ve successfully made 69% of the 140+ products we carry (and their components) recyclable!
We continually work with our manufacturers to identify new technology and packaging innovation for any packaging components that are either non-recyclable or difficult to recycle.
Ethically Harvesting Noni
Our noni fruit is grown without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. The multigenerational family farms we work with also only harvest by hand — it doesn’t get more natural than that!
As a single noni tree has fruit at different stages of ripeness, much of the fruit will drop to the ground and decompose. As the fruit breaks down, nutrients return to the soil, continuing the cycle for the next batch of fruit.
Preventing Waste With Puritii®
Plastic bottles are one of our environment’s worst enemies, especially when not recycled. Thanks to our reusable Puritii® Tritan Water Bottles, we’ve successfully prevented more than 52 million plastic bottles from being disposed of in landfills and our planet’s oceans! Think about that next time you fill up your Puritii bottle and smile, knowing you are actively helping prevent plastics in landfills and oceans.
Protecting Our Oceans With Lucim™
Speaking of oceans, an average of 28 million pounds of sunscreen gets released into the world’s oceans every year (equivalent to more than four Saturn V rockets, the rocket that first brought humans to the moon). Unfortunately, most sunscreens include highly toxic ingredients to marine life, specifically our ocean’s coral reefs. These toxins cause irreparable damage to the environment.
Lucim Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30* isn’t just the best defense against the harmful effects of UVA and UVB rays — it’s also reef safe! We’ve carefully and thoughtfully developed the non-toxic formula with our incredible earth in mind, so lather it on and take a dip in the ocean without fear of leaving behind any damaging chemicals.
Maintaining a Cruelty-free Pledge
We advocate for both the protection of human health and safety as well as the ethical and humane treatment of animals. That’s why our products are never tested on animals. Our cosmetic products, including Lucim and Lucim+™, are certified by Leaping Bunny and PETA’s Beauty without Bunnies campaign.
