Cosmetics companies whose products meet or exceed current EU [European
Union] formulation standards are encouraged to sign the Compact for Safe
Cosmetics (below). ONLY cosmetics companies who manufacture their own
line of products can sign the Compact.
If you are an individual who wants to support the Campaign, please visit
the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics website Take
Action section.
ONE Group, maker of Miessence Organics, has signed the pledge listed
below:
THE COMPACT FOR GLOBAL PRODUCTION OF SAFE HEALTH & BEAUTY
PRODUCTS
(Compact for Safe Cosmetics)
Our company pledges:
That all of the cosmetics and personal care products made by our company
anywhere in the world meet the formulation standards and deadlines set
by the European Union Directive 76/768/EEC to be free of chemicals that
are known or strongly suspected of causing cancer, mutation or birth
defects.
To implement substitution plans that replace hazardous materials with
safer alternatives within three years. We will accomplish this by:
Conducting an inventory of potential chemicals of concern in our
products (or byproducts) to determine their toxicity to living things,
their persistence in the environment, their ability to increase in
concentration in the food chain, their contamination of our bodies,
or qualities they possess that pose hazards including carcinogens,
endocrine disrupters, sensitizers, mutagens, reproductive toxins, developmental
toxins and neurotoxins.
Developing an aggressive substitution plan and timeline: to move
to safer materials, prioritizing for substitution those compounds internationally
recognized as most toxic; to provide for an ongoing review of safer
materials and chemicals as effective, cost-competitive alternatives
are available, and; to work with upstream suppliers to provide toxicity
data on chemicals in products.
Publicly reporting on progress to meet these goals.
