Phase-out of microbeads 80% complete / Sustainability programme calls for reduction in packaging's environmental footprint

In response to the rise in plastic litter in the marine environment, a number of countries and regions have already introduced or are mulling legislation on a ban on microbeads (Plasteurope.com has reported extensively). Keeping pace with the legal regime, consumer goods giant L’Oréal (Île-de-France / France; www.loreal.com) has announced that it has reformulated 80% of its product range, including exfoliations, that previously contained plastic microbeads.
