Company's comments
For many years, L’Oréal has begun a profound transformation of its model, in all areas, in order to adapt to the great changes in the world. Convinced that sustainable development is an essential factor for success and durability, L’Oréal is deploying an ambitious corporate social responsibility policy, which is shared by its management and teams.

Following its first sustainability programme ‘Sharing beauty with all’, L’Oréal initiated in June 2020 the second generation of its commitments to sustainable development, under the umbrella of a programme called L’Oréal for the Future, with a new set of particularly ambitious targets for 2030.

As part of L’Oréal for the Future, the Group is no longer able to follow up this commitment because L’Oréal has moved to new indicators, which are more holistic, covering all the impacts associated with its value chain : its production and distribution sites, but also its supply chains and the impacts associated with the use of products by consumers.
