Addressing Climate Change

Climate change is a common challenge facing mankind in the 21st century. Yatsen is concerned about the impact of climate change on business operations, and is committed to effectively identifying and addressing climate change risks, actively improving its own.

Green Products to Manage Product Carbon Footprint

Yatsen is concerned about the carbon emissions from its products and gradually conducts carbon footprint assessment on its products, aiming to figure out the carbon emissions from its products in the processes of raw material production, manufacturing, transportation, use and disposal through carbon footprint assessment, identify the emission reduction potential of its products at each stage from "cradle-to-grave", and reduce the carbon footprint of its products and hence the impact of its products on the ecological environment through energy-saving and emission reduction measures in the future.

Highlights

 

  •  

  • -Yatsen has officially set a carbon neutrality target along with interim emission reduction goals in 2024. Using 2021 as the baseline year, we commit to:

  •  

  • ￮Achieve 100% use of clean energy within our operations by 2035

  • ￮Achieve net-zero carbon emissions across own operations by 2040, reduce carbon emission intensity in upstream transportation by 50%, and reduce carbon emission intensity of core suppliers by 50%

  • ￮Achieve carbon neutrality across the entire value chain by 2050

  •  

  • -All large shipping cartons used across Yatsen Group’s brands have been fully certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).

Green Packaging to Minimize Scrap of Packaging Materials

Yatsen, acting in compliance with the laws and regulations of China and other countries on product packaging, takes into account the compliance, safety and environmental protection characteristics of packaging materials in the design and development of packaging materials in order to minimize packaging materials by virtue of green, lightweight and recyclable packaging and other measures, provided that product quality is guaranteed.

Green Operation to Carry on Business in an More Environment-friendly Manner

To respond to the national call for energy conservation and emission reduction, Yatsen manages energy use and emissions in the course of its operation and development under the concept of green development, and it works with its suppliers and employees to actively explore and implement environmental improvement measures to mitigate the impact of production and operation on the environment.
