Steps we are taking to reduce our environmental impact
Demak’Up is committed to reducing its environmental impact. The packaging of our Demak’Up cottons is recyclable and contains at least 60% recycled materials.
Our packaging
It is now essential to rethink the value chain of our entire ecosystem. We aim for our packaging to be part of a more sustainable and efficient circular economy.
All our packaging is recyclable. For more information, you can visit consignedetri.com to learn about recycling options in your area.
Since 2021, we have used 60% PCR (post-consumer recycling) in all our packaging. This means that part of the plastic comes from used film, which can be recycled again for further manufacturing, offering true sustainability.
Demak'Up BIO, made from GOTS-certified cotton fibres of natural origin
Demak’Up Bio cottons are made from GOTS-certified cotton fibers of natural origin. GOTS stands for Global Organic Textile Standard and defines the criteria for confirming the ‘organic’ qualification of natural fibers. This standard guarantees environmentally friendly production processes, promotes the use of organic fibers, and ensures the respect and improvement of working conditions.
The Hondouville cotton factory has a quality management system validated by certifications that ensure our cotton is organic. Additionally, the production campaign for our Demak’Up Bio cottons includes extra precautions such as the ‘line vacuum’ to ensure the product is made of certified organic cotton fibers.
Our cotton fiber supplier must participate in the GOTS certification procedure, which is based on an annual on-site inspection cycle (with possible additional unannounced inspections). They must hold a valid certificate of conformity listing the certified products and the processing, manufacturing, and trading activities covered by the certification.
