What does Riemann P20 have a high score for?

As a high-scoring brand, Riemann P20 has a top score in many of our categories. However, we are especially pleased with its score for Genetic Modification. Orkla, Riemann P20’s parent company has a statement which opposes the use of  genetically modified ingredients.

Additionally, Riemann P20 receives a top rating for Vegetarian/Vegan Verified, as it has products certified by The Vegan Society.

What can Riemann P20 do to improve its score? 

Riemann P20’s excellent score within The Good Shopping Guide’s Ethical Sun Protection sector is the outcome of an evaluation of multiple ethical criteria.

Unfortunately, Riemann P20 is not currently an organic suncream brand. As a result, it receives a bottom score for The Good Shopping Guide’s Organic category. We hope that in the future it can achieve organic certification for its products so that it can see its score rise.
