OUR PRODUCTION IS SUSTAINABLE
We minimize our water consumption
Discover more about our dry factor in Burgos, Spain. Why do we say dry? Because following the principle of circular economy, it has a closed circuit of reused water. That means that in the production process we only use fresh water as raw material and for human consumption.
How do we do it?
All waste is reused thanks to innovative recycling processes with nanofiltration and reverse osmosis.
Sustainable packaging
One of the biggest problems facing our world today is plastic pollution. Therefore, we use a process called "light weighting" that helps us minimise the amount of plastic needed in our packaging.
How do we do it?
But we not only want to reduce the consumption of virgin plastic, we also want to help reduce the existing plastic on our planet. Therefore, at Biolage we use plastic containers up to 100% recycled and recyclable, thus helping to combat the global plastic crisis that we are facing.
Less CO2 emissions
At Biolage, we are neutral in CO2 emissions in our factory since 2015 and in our corporate headquarters since 2017, which means a reduction of 30% over the previous year.
How do we do it?
We gain our energy from renewable and environmentally friendly sources . The factory has a biomass trigeneration plant that provides electricity, hot water and steam. It works with wood from cleaning the surrounding forests.
No to waste
We live in a world where waste is very common . We want to support the waste reduction movement, being ourselves an example.
How do we do it?
We give you an example: the quinoa shell from Bolivia that we use in our formulas. That shell protects the quinoa grain, and is removed before consuming it. If we didn't use it, it would be wasted. Therefore, by including it in our formulas we help both local Bolivian farmers and the environment.
