The North American edition of the Sustainable Cosmetics Summit aims to tackle some of the major sustainability issues in the beauty industry. Hosted in New York on 17-19 May, the three-day summit focuses on green formulations and sustainable packaging.
Other key topics on the summit agenda are sustainability metrics and marketing innovations. For the first time, a summit will showcase popular techniques to measure the environmental footprint of personal care products. With research showing raw materials and packaging comprise the highest environmental impact of personal care products, the summit hones in on these key areas. Dedicated sessions and plenary workshops cover green formulations and sustainable packaging. An update will be given on the palette of green ingredients available to formulators, while the gamut of sustainable packaging options will be highlighted.
