A consortium of 15 cosmetics companies have joined together to create the TRaceability Alliance for Sustainable CosmEtics (TRASCE), to enhance traceability in major ingredient and packaging supply chains across the beauty and personal care industry.
The alliance, which was initiated by Chanel, unites the luxury brand with Albéa, Clarins Group, Cosfibel powered by GPA Global, Dior, Estée Lauder Companies, L’Occitane en Provence, L’Oréal Groupe, Merck, Neyret, Nuxe, Pochet Group, Sensient, Shiseido and Sisley.
TRASCE is a response to three major challenges the industry is currently facing in terms of sustainability and regulation changes. It aims to: strengthen the understanding of the cosmetics industry supply chains, to assess related social and environmental risks, and to determine what action needs to be taken to help suppliers become more sustainable.
