The beauty industry alone produces upwards of 120 billion packages per year, and a large percentage of these packages contain hard-to-recycle components that end up in landfills if disposed of incorrectly. This is not OK.
We need to take a stance on environmental issues and protect our planet. This is why we are meticulous with every decision we make—from our raw ingredients to our sustainable packaging, and everything in between.
We are conscious of the impact we have on our beloved mother earth and do everything in our power to ensure that our products are safe for you and our planet. That’s a promise.
We believe in the power of transparency, so we've made it our mission to share as much information as possible about our products and how we make them.
We know you care about animal rights, and we do too. Animals don't have a voice, and they don't have a choice. It's up to us to ensure they're stood up for. That's why all of our products are certified cruelty-free under The Leaping Bunny Program.
The Leaping Bunny is an organization that is fully committed to animal rights, providing assurance that products are free of animal testing at all stages of product development by performing annual audits on companies who are part of the program. We believe in making the world a better place for animals, and we think it's important that our customers know exactly what they're getting when they shop with us.
At Lamano, we believe that everyone should be able to make a positive impact on the environment. Our goal is to help you do it—and make your life easier in the process.
We know there's no one-size-fits-all approach to sustainability—that's why we spent countless hours researching the most sustainable bottles on the market. And we still are, till this day.
We chose glass bottles as it is a highly recyclable material, and amber glass bottles specifically, as it helps protect our products from light and UV rays, which helps us maintain the durability and effectiveness of our ingredients.
But we also understand that using amber glass bottles instead of clear glass bottles means it's harder to recycle your product packaging, which is why we chose to team up with The Pact Collective to help reduce waste and work toward full circularity and closing the loop.
The Pact Collective is a non-profit organization founded by beauty industry stakeholders that works to solve the problem of hard-to-recycle beauty packaging by diverting it from landfills and putting it to its highest and best use. We also chose to team up with The Pact Collective as they actively educate customers and empower them with the education and resources needed to recycle all of their other beauty product packaging.

Every product uses seed packaging, which means that you can grow flowers with every Lamano purchase.
We chose work collectively with Botanical Paperworks, a Canadian manufacturer of 100% biodegradable and compostable packaging, to source our secondary packaging. When you plant this packaging, it provides natural habitats for bees, butterflies, and birds all across North America.
How to grow your own Lamano Floral Garden:
1. Cover your seeded paper with 1/8" of soil, place it in a sunny spot and water often.
2.. Enjoy this Lamano experience and watch your wildflowers bloom!
3. We would love to feature your Lamano Floral Garden #lamanofloralgarden
All of our tertiary packaging is either made of 100% recycled materials or are 100% recyclable.
To make it easy for you to recycle, we’ve purposefully selected our shipping boxes according to The Pact Collective's shipping guidelines*.
