At Chikii we are very aware of our planets health and about environment sustainability. Conscious awareness is bought to all levels of our business and to every aspect of the products we choose to ensure the ripple we make is a positive one. We have a policy of ” transparency” as to what ingredients we choose in our products and never sacrificing the wellbeing of our customers for the economic benefits of cheap synthetic ingredients.
We proudly support our partners who are committed not only that our wellbeing is a priority, but also our planets health.One of the easiest ways that we can make a powerful contribution in supporting the health of both humanity and nature,is by choosing skincare brands that are committed to sustainability on earth,choosing brands that practices sustainable farming,supports fair trade and uses certified ingredients.We like to choose companies that use airless pumps for their formulations to prevent air being introduced (air creates an environment for some bacterial growth) and lessens the need for preservatives. We look at packaging that is environmental friendly e.g. consumer recycled, sustainable materials, free trade packaging. We believe to love is to take care, and to feel the impact of our actions on all that we touch upon. We also look at recyclable glass and PET plastic for bottles and we are constantly researching even better environmental options for this area.
As part of our goal to preserve the beauty of the planet, we are taking steps at every level… At our office we minimise paper waste,we also recycle and strive to reduce waste in all areas of our administration and production. We recycle packaging and are conscious of waste at every level. We employ staff to fit in with their family life and pursuit of personal goals allowing people to work from home with flexible hours.
