Focus on sustainable development
With innovation as a tool for differentiation, sustainable development is the standard bearer of the group’s strategy. This responsible approach informs each choice made by Carestia Arcade Beauty’s teams. Each product’s carbon footprint is analyzed in detail. They are an essential part of the company’s global CSR strategy. The strength of Carestia’s offer is also about respecting human health and civic values.
The recent health crisis was a time to reflect for Carestia, informing new ideas in line with brands’ needs (contact-free products, refillable solutions, safe and transparent formulas, ethical and local sourcing…). Once again, the power of innovation continues to prove itself.
