Beauty Packaging’s no.1 Top Company, L’Oréal, has achieved 100% renewable energy across its operational sites in the South Asia Pacific, Middle East & North Africa (SAPMENA) Zone. This includes all factories, distribution centers, administrative offices, and a research & innovation center within the Zone. 
 
Vismay Sharma, President of L’Oréal SAPMENA Zone, said, 
 
“L’Oréal’s SAPMENA Zone covers an expansive geography spanning from New Zealand to Morocco and is a major growth engine for L’Oréal where one in two new consumers will come from in the next decade. This region is one of the most affected by climate change, and it is critical as the world’s leading beauty player that we embed sustainable practices into our operations as we grow.”
 
This is a significant step in the Zone’s sustainability journey and comes amidst a period of dynamic growth for L’Oréal SAPMENA, with double-digit production output and sales growth since 2021.
 
The 23 sites within the SAPMENA Zone use a diverse range of renewable energy solutions, including solar deployments, hydro dams, and electric boilers. The Zone also secured long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) and/or used green supply contracts and energy attribute certificates.
 
Moving forward, L’Oréal will continue to invest in renewable energy sources in its effort to reach Net Zero. 
 
The company will also address carbon reduction in packaging, logistics, and transportation, and invest in upskilling and educating strategic suppliers. 
 
By 2030, L’Oréal will innovate to enable our consumers to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the use of products by 25% compared to 2016, on average and per finished product.
