Reducing Plastic, Respecting Nature
A Story of Sustainability: Respecting the Earth
As a socially responsible company, L’OCCITANE is committed to reducing resource waste and preventing pollution—because the future of our planet depends on the actions we take today.
For years, we’ve focused on recycling, reducing, and reusing. There’s still much to be done, and we’re continuing to push forward.
L'OCCITANE and Plastic Odyssey join forces to protect the oceans
"To combat plastic pollution in our oceans, our action must start on land"
“We are facing an environmental crisis. Businesses must not only mitigate their impact on the planet, but also have an obligation and responsibility to find concrete and practical solutions to further protect our ecosystems. As a major sponsor of Plastic Odyssey, L’Occitane supports this initiative that aims to transform plastic waste into a resource and contribute to the development of new economic models.”

Our Aromachologie collection is packaged with sustainability in mind. Compared to original packaging, our eco-refills and bottles use up to 75% less plastic.
Ever wondered why the bottles in this range are green or brown? While most beauty brands prefer transparent plastic, L’OCCITANE chooses bottles made with 94% recycled materials, embracing eco-conscious design.
By 2025, our goal is for all bottles to be made from rPET (recycled PET). To achieve this, we’re proud to partner with Loop Industries, working together toward a greener future.
Less Packaging, More Love for the Planet
Sustainable Beauty Starts with Small Changes
At L’OCCITANE, we believe that caring for the Earth is a beautiful act of love. That’s why many of our products are now available in eco-refills, which use up to 75% less plastic compared to standard bottles.
For over 20 years, we’ve offered eco-refills as part of our commitment to reducing waste. With over 20 eco-refill options available, switching to these planet-friendly alternatives can reduce packaging weight by up to 97%—a small change that makes a big difference. And the good news? Even more refill options are on the way!
Reduce the waste of raw materials and provide more care for the skin
Zero Waste, Maximum Care
One of the most important ways we reduce waste is by making full use of every ingredient we harvest. Fromalmondstoshea, we ensure that nothing goes to waste—not even the shells. Every part is thoughtfully used to create products that care for your skin and the planet.
Less Waste, More of What Truly Matters
Simplifying Packaging with Purpose
Every step counts when it comes to reducing waste and conserving resources,which is why our cartons no longer use plastic sealing film. Product instructions are now printed on the inside of the carton, eliminating the need for a separate product leaflet.
