Superdrug has committed to reduce plastic waste and support the use of sustainable Palm Oil. The beauty retailer has taken membership with the Roundtable of Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) to help address the environmental impact of palm oil. In addition, Superdrug will also be the first health and beauty retailer to sign-up to the New Plastics Economy Global Commitment to help reduce plastic waste. 

As part of an ongoing commitment to make more sustainable choices available to its customers, Superdrug offers a selection of own brand products formulated with sustainable Palm Oil, with over 80% of Superdrug own-brand suppliers using sustainable Palm Oil, accredited by RSPO. In addition, by participating in the New Plastics Economy Global Commitment initiative, Superdrug is aiming to eliminate unnecessary plastic and to help reduce plastic pollution. The retailer has already demonstrated its commitment as a business to cut plastic waste by bringing in several initiatives, for example, Superdrug’s B. Makeup Brushes are currently being redesigned to reduce the amount of plastic used by 82%.
