Antipodes New Zealand Limited Sustainability Commitments
2024
Expand sustainability initiatives
Antipodes says it is working on new sustainability initiatives for 2024 and beyond. It does not give full details, but it says these projects are meant to support its goal of becoming the world’s most sustainable and effective natural skincare brand. Because the company does not list each project clearly, the commitment is broad rather than specific.
2024
Publish ingredient traceability results
The brand says its next goal is to make its ingredient traceability more transparent by publishing the results. This means it plans to share more detail about where its ingredients come from and how they are tracked. The company says it already has 100% traceability, but the public reporting part is still a future step.
2030
Reach full plastic-free packaging
Antipodes says it aims to become 100% plastic free. It also says some packaging parts still do not have plastic-free alternatives, so this is a long-term target rather than a finished result. The brand says it is waiting for new packaging innovations to help it remove the remaining plastic from its skincare range.
2030
Achieve fully biodegradable formulas
Antipodes says it aims to have 100% biodegradable ingredients in every formulation. This means it wants all product residue to break down naturally over time. The company presents this as a future goal, not something it has fully achieved yet, so it should be treated as a target for later years rather than a current fact.
2025
Become B Corp certified
Antipodes says it has submitted its application to B Corp, a certification for companies that meet strict social and environmental standards. The brand says it is on the way to becoming certified, but it has not said that it has already received the certification. This is a clear future commitment, but the exact completion date is not confirmed on the page.
2025
Gain Leaping Bunny approval
Antipodes says it is working toward Leaping Bunny certification, which is a recognised cruelty-free standard. The brand says this would give extra certainty that its products are not tested on animals. It has not said that certification has been granted yet, so this remains a future goal.
