Packaging
Antati relies on plastic for much of their product packaging, despite the incorporation of some recyclable materials. Products are mostly packaged in carton-like outside packaging and glass bottles with plastic droppers or caps, and some plastic tubes. Packaging per use remains relatively high with no available refill program.
Ingredient Sustainability
The brand maintains a Zero Tolerance list that precludes the use of harmful chemicals like parabens, sulfates, and many other highly toxic ingredients. They source many plant-derived ingredients from low-impact crops. However, Antati also uses a number of synthetic ingredients that are often petro-derived, and the brand does not specify the exclusion of petrochemicals. Some plant-based ingredients, like the use of almond oil (highly water-intensive), also raises concerns. Sustainable sourcing for these ingredients is not specified.
Energy Use and Footprint
There is no publicly available data regarding Antati’s energy practices, local sourcing, or carbon footprint. The brand is Lebanese, and if production is local and small-scale, emissions may be modest compared to industry standards.
Waste Management
There is very little information available regarding the brand’s waste management practices. They do claim most products are crafted in-house.
Business Model
Antati is committed to clean beauty. It’s a local Lebanese brand that models its branding around intentionality. However, there's no clear system for reducing waste via concentrates, bars, or refillable models, etc.
