SUSTAINABILITY REPORT ARTDECO COSMETIC GROUP
As part of the Artdeco Cosmetic Group, we publish our first joint sustainability report. In the report we will inform you about our most recent activities and the milestones we have already reached and are still planned for the future. We look forward to continuing our journey with you!

Product Carbon Footprint
We calculated the emissions of the first products and compensated them through further climate protection projects. We started at MALU WILZ with the Aloe Vera Cream.
MALU WILZ ALOE VERA CREAM: 391 g CO² / piece
Year after year, further products follow in order to reduce our product carbon footprint and to initiate corresponding measures.
Achievements to date Product packaging
EXAMPLES OF REALIZATION OF THE MALU WILZ BRAND
- FSC cardboard for decorative and care products (for example Beauty Boxes)
- Elimination of the package insert (Mineral Powder Foundation & Caviar Gold & Sensitive Pro products) by QR code and folding box with inside printing
- Elimination of folding boxes (MEN products & ALOE VERA series)
- Climate-neutral folding box (Sensitive Pro & ALOE VERA series)
The products are the heart of our company. That is why we focus in particular on optimizing our packaging for greater sustainability. Important to us here are the recyclability of our packaging, increased use of recyclates , as well as circular economy and minimal use of resources.
Example Sensitive Pro
For the first time, MALU WILZ uses product packaging from PCR (post consumer recycling). This is packaging waste that has been used by the end consumer and then enters the recycling loop, for example via the yellow bag. These are then reprocessed and can be used again as packaging. For packaging for which recyclates cannot currently be used, we rely on mono materials (packaging made from only one material to facilitate proper disposal).
The product line can be called "Clean Beauty" because it has been developed under strict conditions that go beyond the law. It is vegan and free of silicones, sulfates, mineral oil, parabens, PEGs, microplastics, aluminum, chemical filters, palm oil as well as nanoparticles. The entire series counteracts skin irritation and redness, strengthens the disturbed barrier function of the skin and increases moisture.
External engagement
In 2021, true to World Oceans Day, MALU WILZ donated €1 per product sold from the Thalasso skin care line to the One Earth – One Ocean organization from June to December. Specifically, the donation will go to the project "Recovering ghost nets in the Baltic Sea".
Sustainability is becoming more and more important to people. We will all have to find solutions to problems and challenges in order not only to preserve our planet for future generations, but also to ensure the success of our company in the future. We are looking forward to going on this journey together with you and are eager to hear your impulses and feedback!
