Our CSR Commitments

Carbon Footprint
At Ellipse, taking climate action means moving from intention to action.
In 2025, we carried out our first carbon footprint assessment. The results show that 75 percent of our emissions come from the use of our products, far more than from their manufacturing (15 percent), end of life (5 percent) or transport (2.4 percent).
In other words, the biggest impact happens in the bathroom: the water used and the energy needed to heat it represent the largest share of our carbon footprint.
To address this, we have launched concrete and long-lasting actions:
-
Raising awareness among our customers about responsible water use and product usage,
-
Eco-designing our ranges, including recycled materials and lighter packaging (already two-thirds plastic-free)
-
Optimizing logistics to reduce transport flows and adopt alternative fuels.
Our ambition is to turn everyday habits into drivers of positive impact.
Our Commitments
At Ellipse, our purpose drives us to help build a fairer, more inclusive, and more sustainable society. This commitment is reflected through concrete actions, raising our teams’ awareness of environmental issues, promoting social inclusion, and supporting dignified access to hygiene for everyone.
Through these initiatives, we affirm our determination to combine social impact and environmental transition, both in our operations and in our collective choices.
