Is Avène an ethical sun protection brand?

Does Avène have an Environmental Report?

Pierre Fabre, Avène’s parent company has an ‘Our Commitments’ page. The page details several targets such as reducing CO2 emissions, as well as evidence of progress.

As a result, Avène receives a top score for this category.

Is Avène suncream organic and vegan?

Unfortunately, Avène does not currently produce any organic or vegan suncream. We hope that in the future it will introduce some vegan and organic suncream products so that its score can rise on the Sun Protection Ethical Ratings Table.

What can Avène do to improve its score? 
Avène’s below benchmark score within The Good Shopping Guide’s Ethical Sun Protection sector is the outcome of a calculation of a variety of ethical criteria.

As it has a low score in the Ethical Sun Protection sector we recommend that Avène get in touch with us and apply for Ethical Accreditation. After we received its application, The Good Shopping Guide would offer Avène some advice on how to work on its bottom scores to become a more sustainable sun cream brand.
