Our environmental policy
Because paying attention to our environmental impact is something that is very important to us, My Pédicurie would like to present its actions as part of a CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) approach.
Ecology, an imperative
Because growing up in a healthy environment is essential, we decided to establish My Pédicurie in the heart of the Landes forest, more precisely in Saint-Vincent-de-Tyrosse. It is imperative for us to anchor our actions in a smart CSR approach. At My Pédicurie, we sort all waste that must leave the company. Waste sorting in companies has been mandatory since July 1, 2016. This law requires producers and holders of waste, regardless of the quantity produced, to sort their paper, metal, plastic, glass, and wood waste. Our team members are involved in the search for optimal environmental solutions and are regularly educated about sorting practices.
Recycling of cardboard and packing
All the boxes used to package your orders are recycled. You may therefore receive the products you ordered in boxes bearing the logo of our manufacturers, or in boxes that are given to us free of charge. The same goes for the cushioning used to properly protect your products in the boxes; they are recycled. You may sometimes receive plastic cushioning. However, please note that we never purchase cushioning. We use the same materials that our manufacturers use to cushion the merchandise we order. When the cushioning is made of paper, please note that it is always old files or papers from our company or those around us, which we put through the paper shredder. With us, everything is recycled! From the cardboard to the cushioning.
Green Card Certification
Carton Vert's vision is to effectively reduce cardboard waste and CO2 emissions through recycling. We have achieved this certification because we use recycled cardboard as explained above. This approach has a strong positive environmental impact, and we are proud to contribute to it.
2024 Review
We are proud to share with you our environmental report for the year 2024 , marked by our commitment through Green Card Certification.
🌱 900 kg of reused cardboard purchased
This simple gesture had a considerable impact:
- 950 kg of CO2 avoided, the equivalent of 2,820 km by long-haul plane, thus helping to reduce our carbon footprint.
- 181,350 liters of water saved, a precious resource that we helped to preserve.
These figures are much more than statistics: they reflect our values and our desire to build a sustainable future.
Small gestures to adopt
There are many ways to take care of the environment, even on a small scale.
Here is a list of little tips that you can apply when shopping on our website:
- Order refillable containers: many of our hygiene products are available in 5L containers which allow you to refill bottles you have already purchased previously.
- Order refillable wipes: most of our wipes are available in refill form.
- Ordering products in stock: When your order includes both products in stock and products out of stock, please note that your order, if it is equal to €360, will be sent in two parts: one package made up of products in stock and a second package which will be sent when the products out of stock arrive in our warehouse.
Agreeing to wait for out-of-stock products to be delivered to our company to join the package of in-stock products you ordered is a positive step for the environment. And much more!
