Our Conscious Formulations

We’re passionate about supporting local producers and suppliers so we make it a priority to formulate our products with local ingredients wherever possible. Although many of Alpha-H’s ingredients are sourced from certified sustainable RSPO suppliers, we’re working towards formulating exclusively with sustainable sources so that we can continue to minimize our impact on the environment, ecosystems and communities, while also championing sustainable native ingredient sources.

We also never formulate with any questionable ingredients that could cause harm to ourselves or our environment. See here for more information on our Clean Formula Commitment.

Our Packaging

Roughly 30% – 35% of our tubes and bottles are made from recycled materials. New technology means that over one third of post-consumer recycled resin (PCR resin) can be used in packaging without compromising the integrity of the product. Beyond this, Alpha-H’s tubes, bottles and cardboard packaging are all 100% recyclable.

We choose post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials whenever possible and try to ensure that almost everything we send out is recylable. Nonetheless, packaging is a complex area; and we are the first to admit there is no perfect solution. There are pros and cons of both glass (heavy to ship, great to recycle) and plastic (light to ship, can be recycled) - so we use a mix of both, and are always working to innovate and improve, offering our customers and the planet most sustainable versions of ourselves.

Reinventing waste with NuGrow

Our transformative approach revitalises more than just skin. We partner with NuGrow to manage our liquid waste in the most sustainable and circular way we could find. NuGrow is Queensland’s leader in recycling and revegetation. They convert liquid, solid, food organics, garden organics and green waste into high-grade composts, premium soils and soil conditioners. 

These are used for land rehabilitation projects such as a growing medium or as a substitute for synthetic fertilisers. They rejuvenate degraded land by improving ecological and biological integrity through improved soil fertility and micro-life.

Leaping Bunny Certified

Alpha-H is now certified cruelty free by the Cruelty Free International Leaping Bunny Programme, the most globally recognisable certification for cruelty free products.

This certification is the best assurance that a company does not, and their suppliers do not, test on animals. Our products have been made without causing pain of suffering to animals. 

Cruelty free is a term that is often applied to final products, but as a certified Leaping Bunny brand we’ve ensured that all our products and all our ingredients, at all parts of the supply chain, are truly cruelty free. 

Alpha-H underwent a rigorous audit of the brand’s supply chain and ingredients, resulting in Leaping Bunny certifying that our products and ingredients are not tested on animals at any point in the process. 

Powered by Sustainable Energy

We're making the most of the natural resources here on the sunny Gold Coast, powering our factory and head office with the help of 195 solar panels.

Measuring some 325m2, this clean energy solution will reduce our CO2 emissions by almost 67,000kg per year. Any excess power is returned to the grid.

This means that we're entirely powered by sustainable energy sources, with over 60% of our energy generated by our own solar power at our Gold Coast headquarters.
