Thalgo - Leisure Opportunities

committedto sustainabledevelopmentThalgo has always been an environmentally friendly company,conscious of the need for sustainable development. After all, we relyon the precious natural environment for our marine ingredients, whichwe harvest in a sustainable way.• Between 2004-6, Thalgo reduced its waste by 30% - that’s compared to an increase in production of bulk by 17%.• Thalgo conserves energy at its South of France HQ by using solar energy panels and ensuring all employees conserveenergy day-to-day as well.• Thalgo UK also supports the Marine Conservation Society in their important work protecting UK seas, shores andwildlife. Selected Thalgo products carry a donation to MCS. We also organised a Beach Clean earlier this year to getreally hands-on; and raffles took place in some salons and spas to raise money for this worthy cause that is so closeto the heart of our marine brand.
