Find out how our Green Impact Index works 

The Green Impact Index is a tool for measuring the eco-social design of dermo-cosmetic and family health care products. Its method, which has been evaluated and validated by AFNOR Certification, is based on 20 social and environmental criteria, for which a score is allocated. We invite you to discover these 20 criteria in detail.

Why has Pierre Fabre created the Green Impact Index?

Inspired by the profoundly humanist and ecological convictions of our founder—a passionate pharmacist and botanist—, we have always taken care to be as respectful as possible toward nature and people. The Green Impact Index marks a new step forward on the long road to continuous improvement. 

The Green Impact Index is all about: 

  • For us, an assessment tool to help us progress and develop products that are ever more respectful of our planet, in line with our commitments;  
  • For you, a tool to help you make the right choices and consume more responsibly, in line with your convictions. 

Owned by a government-recognized public-interest foundation that takes concrete action to improve access to health care in countries of the Global South, the Pierre Fabre group obtained an
Excellence rating from Ecocert Environment, a third-party certification body,  for its sustainable development policy (according to the ISO 26000 standard).

We take care of life by designing and developing innovative solutions inspired by consumers and patients, and contributing to the well-being of everyone from health to beauty.
