The organiser of the in-cosmetics Global trade show is expanding the Sustainability Zone for the event that takes in Paris in April.
New for 2024, the Sustainability Zone Forum has been created to share and discuss new advancements that deliver sustainability improvements.
This one-day programme includes sessions from leading experts in this space, opening with remarks from chair Dr. Barbara Olioso, managing director of The Green Chemist Consultancy, who will examine the applications of sustainability from corporate and financial perspectives, shared risk and natural resource interconnections.
The day will close with a session ‘Sustainable Palm Oil: a resource for the cosmetic industry to achieve environmental and social goals’.
Other talks from Euromonitor International, Farmforce, Syensqo, Expressions Parfumées, Olvea, Croda, ThePackHub and RSPO will make up the forum’s programme.
The Sustainability Zone, in partnership with The Green Chemist Consultancy and Ecovia Intelligence, is devoted to inspiring, offering information, and uncovering opportunities for brands to be more sustainable.
This year, the zone encompasses other features, including the Sustainability Display and Theatre, both sponsored by AAK, and the Sustainability Pavilion, powered by Farmforce, which provides a dedicated space for visitors to identify and explore sustainable solutions across the entire cosmetics value chain.
"We are thrilled to introduce the enhanced and expanded Sustainability Zone this year, which has been meticulously designed to be a platform for the personal care ingredients industry to discover opportunities on how to adopt green practices,” said event director Roziani Zulkifli.
“Sustainability is embedded as one of the exhibition’s three core pillars, alongside science and innovation, and we look forward to helping visitors tap into these trends further,” she added.
The in-cosmetics Global trade show, organised by RX, takes place on 16-18 April at the Porte de Versailles expo centre.
