Each year on 18 March, Global Recycling Day reminds us that the resources we use every day have value and that recycling plays a vital role in protecting our planet’s future.

At De Lorenzo, sustainability isn’t a trend or a once-a-year conversation. It’s a commitment that has been embedded in the brand for decades from the ingredients we choose to the packaging we produce.

Because caring for your hair should never come at the expense of caring for the environment.

Sustainable Packaging That Gives Materials a Second Life

One of the most important ways we support recycling is through responsible packaging.

Currently, approximately 75% of De Lorenzo home haircare retail products are made from 100% recycled packaging materials, using post-consumer recycled plastics wherever possible. This approach keeps valuable materials in circulation and reduces the amount of waste sent to landfill or oceans.

By turning used plastics into new packaging, we help create a circular system where materials are reused rather than discarded reducing the demand for virgin resources and lowering greenhouse gas emissions.

Recycling plastics can save around one tonne of carbon dioxide emissions for every tonne of plastic recycled, making it a powerful step toward reducing environmental impact.

Ethical Beauty That Respects Nature

Our sustainability philosophy extends beyond packaging.

De Lorenzo products are:

• 100% vegan and cruelty-free
• Formulated with plant-based and naturally derived ingredients
• Made without harsh synthetic ingredients such as sulphates, parabens and petrochemicals
• Proudly Australian made and owned

By focusing on biodegradable ingredients and ethical production, we aim to reduce our environmental footprint while delivering the salon-quality results our customers love.

What Global Recycling Day Means for Us

Global Recycling Day is a reminder that every choice matters from the products we create to the way they are used and disposed of.

At De Lorenzo, we believe sustainability is a shared journey between brands, salons and consumers.

By choosing products designed with recycling, sustainability and ethical practices in mind, together we can help reduce waste, conserve resources and protect the natural beauty that inspires us every day.

Small Actions Make a Big Difference

This Global Recycling Day we encourage you to:

• Recycle your empty product packaging where possible
• Choose products made with recycled materials
• Support brands committed to responsible manufacturing
• Be mindful of your environmental footprint

Because when we care for the planet, we care for the future of beautiful hair too.

De Lorenzo. Inspired by Nature. Committed to Sustainability.
