Ethics Policy

Seaflora Skincare Inc. is committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in all aspects of our business operations. This policy outlines our dedication to sustainable practices, ethical sourcing, and responsible corporate citizenship.

Ethical Standards and Sustainability Commitment

Sustainable Resource Utilization:

• We prioritize the use of rapidly renewable resources, such as Nereocystis, which grows faster than bamboo.
• Our primary ingredients are the most sustainable natural resources including seaweed, sea mud and sea salts, all sourced by hand between Sooke and Port Renfrew, British Columbia, Canada. Ethical Harvesting Practices:

• We employ sustainable harvesting techniques that preserve the integrity and reproductive capacity of marine flora.
• Our seaweed harvesting process involves selective “haircuts” that allow for rapid regrowth and continued spore production. Cruelty-Free Commitment:

• Seaflora Skincare is a certified cruelty-free brand.
• We exclusively partner with cruelty-free suppliers, ensuring no animal testing at any stage of our supply chain. Local and Indigenous Sourcing: • We prioritize local and indigenous sourcing for all our ingredients, avoiding overseas procurement to minimize our carbon footprint and support local economies. Ethical Production and Manufacturing In-House Manufacturing: • As the manufacturer, we maintain direct control over our production processes, ensuring adherence to our ethical standards at every stage. Sustainable Facility Design:

• Our manufacturing facility incorporates eco-friendly features including south-facing windows for natural light, water-based in-floor heating, and solar panels.
• We maintain a strict zero-waste policy in our operations. Accessibility and Employee Welfare: • Our facility is designed with wheelchair accessibility and ergonomic considerations, including sit-stand desks for employee comfort and health. Corporate Social Responsibility Environmental Conservation:

• A portion of each Seaflora purchase is donated to local environmental non-profits: The Ancient Forest Alliance, The Sooke Salmon Enhancement Society, and the Georgia Strait Alliance.

Holistic Business Philosophy:

We quantify wealth through the quality of relationships: with self, with others, and with the environment.
