The Upcycled Beauty Company are pleased to announce the launch of the 2025 Zero Waste Beauty Report published in collaboration with Covalo.

Wasting products is a waste of resources. This includes materials and energy for production, transportation, and end-of-life disposal, which all contribute to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Our excessive use of finite resources and disposable culture also fuels global biodiversity loss.

But it’s not all bad news. The zero waste movement is empowering companies from all corners of the globe to take action, including forward-thinking beauty and personal care brands. Instead of sticking with the linear take-make-waste model, they’re embracing a circular economy, where resources are kept in circulation and waste is eliminated or minimised at every stage. As the Ellen MacArthur Foundation points out, in a circular economy, we stop waste from being produced in the first place.

The Zero Waste Beauty Report lifts the lid on the latest innovations in zero waste beauty and beyond. It covers the need-to-know trends and topics in product formulation, packaging, and operations, inspiring you to drive positive change across the supply chain.
