Sustainability

Today we're going to be taking an in-depth look at the cosmetics and personal care industry in the context of corporate social responsibility. What is that industry doing to be environmentally sustainable and increase diversity in its companies, customer base, and images of beauty?

Industry executives from Europe and beyond gathered June 7-8, in Madrid, Spain, for the annual meeting of the Association of the European Self-Care Industry (AESGP), its first annual meeting since 2019. Under the theme “supporting innovation in self-care during times of uncertainty,” speakers focused on the European context of environmental sustainability, trends shaping the future of the consumer healthcare business, and the outlook for changes to the EU’s pharmaceutical framework, among other topics.
