Faith in Nature and animal policies
All of Faith in Nature’s own brand products are certified through Leaping Bunny certification, which is the strongest certification when it comes to avoiding animal testing. It’s a fully vegan brand, too.
Climate
Faith in Nature was the first company to put ‘Nature’ on its board in September 2022. This means they have a board member who is legally bound to speak on behalf of the natural world, and takes part in decision making as a representative for Nature. Their ‘Nature on the Board’ report explains how ‘nature’ has intervened on real-world issues like palm oil and single use plastics.
Faith in Nature scores well in Ethical Consumer’s climate rating. It only uses vegan ingredients, some organic ingredients, and has reduced its use of palm derivatives. It’s also doing a lot of work around reducing the impact of packaging which you can read more about below. All of these steps help reduce its climate emissions.
Faith in Nature and packaging
Much of the company's packaging is reusable, and it encourages refills - either customers ordering their own refills in bulk or from refill stockists. It also switched from recycled plastic to recycled aluminium for easier recycling of smaller bottles.
Use of palm oil
All of Faith in Nature’s palm oil and palm derived ingredients were certified by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil. It’s also actively working to reduce the amount of palm-derived ingredients in its products.
It stated in its 2023-4 Impact Report that "When we reformulated our products in 2024, we managed to cut our palm-derived ingredients from 16 to 13 (out of 109 ingredients).” It was also investing in the Sumatran Orangutan Society’s Rewild Fund to enhance orangutan habitat, which is under threat from palm plantations.
Workers in the supply chain
The company manufactured all products in-house, which means it has better oversight of working conditions than if it outsourced its production. It stated "We’re proud to make all our products in the UK – and we try to source as many ingredients as possible from the UK too." It also said that it was monitoring its suppliers with a social and environmental impact assessment.
