We focus on concrete and pragmatic actions to create value for our customers and territories by prioritizing safety, health, and the environment.
Recognizing the challenges facing our industries, we have developed a pragmatic and effective CSR policy with our 16 companies that is organized around 4 major goals.

INNOVATE
To transform and improve the sustainability of our offer.
At ANJAC, we prioritize innovation as a means of transforming our product and service offerings. Each new innovation project is built from the ground up to be more sustainable and have a positive impact on health.
Committed to eco-design, ANJAC designs solutions by identifying the best possible configurations in terms of composition and formulation, manufacturing processes, associated packaging, usage gestures and life cycle.
In 2022, ANJAC launched its proprietary internal grid "ANJAC POSITIVE IMPACT".
Resulting from the "ANJAC Green Attack" internal innovation program, this grid objectively measures the eco-responsibility of the Group's Health and Beauty innovations.
Today, to reinforce the Group's actions, ANJAC is committed to joining our industry's collective initiative, the EcoBeautyScore consortium, in order to increase the impact of our actions on the industry as a whole, and therefore on the environment, the climate and consumers.
SAVE
Resources and reduce our environmental footprint.
Environmental disruption is not inevitable. In our own way, we are taking action!
The environment has been a concern of the Group for many years: our companies use the ECOVADIS global CSR performance evaluation standard and its environmental component to measure and challenge our progress.
At ANJAC, our efforts to reduce our consumption of resources (water, energy, virgin plastic) and waste are part of a continuous improvement process to reduce our carbon footprint.
In 2022 and 2023, we have initiated and shared a carbon footprint optimization process to meet the reduction roadmaps for each site.
In 2024, we are committed to achieving GHG scopes 1, 2 and 3 for 2/3 of the Group's activity in terms of sales, in order to build and share our climate transition plan from 2025.
ENSURE
The safety of our collaborators and ensuring their personal and professional development
ANJAC is first and foremost a human adventure: that of our employees who, every day, contribute to creating the beauty and health of tomorrow. As a family-owned company, the development and safety of our teams is a priority. Our 3000+ collaborators share a common culture and values: Human Adventure, Pragmatic and Bold Innovation, Industrial Demanding, Applied Agility.
Our values are those of a family-owned group, a group embodied by trust and an entrepreneurial spirit to foster fulfillment at work for all its teams.
Our commitments:
- PRIORITIZE workplace safety with a "zero accident" policy deployed at every site. Our goal: to achieve a frequency rate below the industry average, i.e. < 5, and a severity rate < 1 by 2026.
- ACCOMPANY the development of our collaborators to enable each one to benefit from the right working conditions to grow within the Group.
- ENSURE social dialogue to prevent, identify and respond to any problems encountered.
BRING
SUPPORT
The "HEALTH" cause in our territories
In line with our activities and in support of our values, we continue to take action in favor of global health and causes that are dear to our teams. We are focusing on 3 major areas related to our core businesses:

- Access to first-aid hygiene;
- Women's health and status.
Our commitments:
- To support and build long-term relationships with associations that reflect our commitment and are consistent with our activities (see illustrations below);
- Donate products and financial support;
- Gradually encourage our teams to contribute through their own personal involvement.

#1 ANJAC Sales Synergy Academy Seminar in 2022.
This event was an opportunity to reinforce the values of the group, but also to federate and create more synergy within the Sales, R&D and Marketing teams.
Workshops, information sharing and moments of relaxation, the conditions for success were met.
The ANJAC « Green Attack » innovation program
Take care of yourself – we’ll take care of the rest!
As proof of our commitment to CSR, in 2020 more than 90% of the Group’s innovations complied with the “ANJAC Green Attack” innovation program for the development of “Safe, Healthy, and Performing” products.
ANJAC is extremely committed to the pathfinder Health and Beauty movement.
To help our customers make the right choices, we worked with our scientific experts, chemists, and toxicologists to create the “ANJAC Green Attack” innovation program which takes a 360 degree approach to CSR and uncompromising with the safety, effectiveness, and sensory appeal of all our innovations.
While doing so, they fulfill their commitment to educate our customers, increase the positive impact on health and provide for transparency.
