BRAZIL, Rio
Reaching zero landfill
In 2007 our factory in Rio hit 100% waste recovery rate, by setting up the State of Rio’s first composting facility in conjunction with our waste management partner, VENATIV. Around 38 tonnes of organic waste from our restaurant and garden have since been composted offsite by the new company, Vide Verde.
As the composting facility has a capacity of 330 tonnes per month, many other companies are now taking advantage of this opportunity. Vide Verde already employs six people. Moreover, L’Oréal benefits from free compost to use in our gardens! Back to initiatives
