In the beauty industry, packaging has long been a challenge due to its often non-recyclable nature and the industry's substantial waste footprint. Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics North America, a renowned company in the beauty and cosmetics space, has long recognized this issue and continues to challenge the need for packaging in its products. We are proud to showcase the story of one of our Pack4Good partners, and the incredible strides they are making to redefine sustainable packaging, reduce waste, and champion innovative solutions that protect the world’s forests and climate! 📖 Read the case study: https://bit.ly/4iCu8Om #Sustainability #PackagingInnovation #Pack4Good #Canopy #LushCosmetics #Lush

This year, we took a deep dive into the challenges and opportunities of scaling circular fashion with our report, “Renewcell: A Springboard, Not a Hurdle.” After Renewcell’s bankruptcy earlier in 2024, we reflected on the lessons learned to help the circular textile sector emerge stronger. As the first commercial textile-to-textile recycling facility, Renewcell paved the way for innovation, but their journey revealed critical insights about funding, supply chain adaptation, and the need for collective action to transform fashion. The report is a call to action: let’s learn from these challenges and ensure future pioneers have the systems, support, and funding needed to succeed. 💡 Read the report to explore how we can “fail forward” toward a truly circular and low-carbon fashion industry https://bit.ly/4i9y9cZ #CircularFashion #NextGenSolutions

This year, 3 billion trees will be destroyed for paper packaging, and 300 million trees will be cut down for fashion fabrics. At Canopy, we're transforming supply chains to protect Ancient and Endangered Forests, innovate sustainable solutions, and create a thriving planet for future generations. In 2025, let's build a future where nature and business thrive together! 🌍 canopyplanet.org #Pack4Good #CanopyStyle #ForestProtection

Nature is sending us a message LOUD and CLEAR: stop cutting down old growth forests! By switching to sustainable and circular fashion and packaging alternatives — rather than sourcing from vital forests — we can also save millions of tons of would-be waste that would usually end up in landfill. Style doesn't have to cost the Earth. It's time to make a change! canopyplanet.org #Sustainability #NextGenSolutions #Pack4Good #CanopyStyle

Every year, over 3 billion trees are cut down for paper packaging. At the same time, millions of tonnes of agricultural residue are burned, and ocean waste accumulates and rots on beaches becoming a major issue for local communities. Canopy’s innovation partner GreenKey sees a way to turn all these problems into packaging solutions. #Innovation #NextGenSolutions #SolutionsAreSexy
