Sustainability

score : Coming soon

Badger has undertaken several significant sustainability initiatives:

Renewable Energy: They have transitioned to 100% solar power at their headquarters, significantly reducing their carbon footprint.

Regenerative Agriculture: Badger has embraced regenerative farming practices to enhance soil health and biodiversity. This includes implementing regenerative techniques in their own gardens and supporting similar practices among their suppliers.

Plastic Neutrality: Partnering with the ReSea Project, Badger removes the equivalent amount of plastic waste from oceans for every product sold.

The sustainability score is slightly reduced on account of the plastic in their packaging, even though they do incorporate post-consumer recycled materials. Further innovation in zero-waste packaging could improve the rating.

Non-toxicity

score : Coming soon

Badger prioritizes using high-quality, natural ingredients, ensuring that over 99% of their ingredients are USDA Certified Organic. They emphasize using simple, recognizable ingredients like zinc oxide for sunscreens and organic oils and waxes for their balms. These ingredients are safe for the skin and sourced through organic agriculture practices. Their impressive number of certifications further support their commitment to safe ingredients.
