OUR MAISONS TAKE ACTION

Reduce, reuse, recycle

— In France, the Perfumes & Cosmetics Maisons

and Sephora use the CEDRE waste sorting,

materials recovery and recycling facility

to handle all waste materials and products

generated by the manufacturing, packaging,

distribution and sale of perfumes and cosmetic

products. CEDRE accepts several types

of articles: obsolete packaging, obsolete

alcohol-based products, advertising materials,

store testers and empty packaging returned

to stores by customers. The various materials

(glass, cardboard, wood, metal, plastic, alcohol

and cellophane) are resold to a network

of specialized recyclers.
