In order to use limited resources effectively, we will work to reduce plastic used in our products and services from the perspective of the 4Rs^※.

• Reduce (reduction in the amount of plastic used for our containers), Reuse (reuse of containers), Recycle (recycling of container recovery), Renew (switch to recycled or plant-based materials)

We are contributing to the realization of a decarbonized, recycling-oriented society by working with customers to reduce the amount of plastic used in containers and packaging. We have actively promoted a "Reduce and Reuse" initiative which has achieved a reduction in plastic use.
We work to reduce the environmental impact of products by incorporating a renewable perspective when using plastic materials for sealed containers, which are needed to maintain product quality.
Our recycling efforts include the recovery and recycling of FANCL cosmetic product containers and the creation of appealing upcycled products. In the future, we will collaborate within the Kirin Group, and work together toward the realization of closed-loop recycling, in which collected cosmetic containers are processed into new cosmetic containers using chemical recycling technology.

We are reducing our plastic use by reducing the weight of containers and changing the container material from plastic to paper.

We are reducing plastic use by using a more lightweight design for containers for various products, including Mild Cleansing Oil and foundation cosmetics.

• The percentage of plastic reduction is compared to the container prior to the renewal.

FANCL has started to use aluminum pouch bags to hold its health food products. As we strive to sell healthy foods at reasonable prices, we have adopted aluminum pouch bags in place of plastic bottles to reduce manufacturing costs. In 2013, we succeeded in reducing the thickness of our aluminum pouches by 11%. We are also continuing our efforts to make the packaging itself smaller, and we plan to further reduce its size starting in 2026.

Since 2023, we have switched the packaging for makeup accessory products (19 products) and dedicated packaging for skincare products sold wholesale at drugstores and convenience stores (10 products) from conventional plastic packaging to environmentally friendly forest-certified paper packaging. For our health food products, we have also switched from using gusset bags (folded exterior bags made from plastic) to external boxes made of forest-certified paper.

We sell environmentally friendly refills while maintaining product quality.

Refillable packaging uses considerably less plastic than conventional bottle-type packaging. It also contributes to reducing plastic waste.
In addition to face washes, we have also developed refillable packaging for other cosmetics products, such as foundation cosmetics and special care items, that still maintains Mutenka quality.
For our toiro essence products which were launched in April 2024, we developed proprietary refill pouches that maintain Mutenka quality by enabling refills to be poured quickly through a small opening, preventing it coming into contact with air as much as possible. We will continue working to expand our range of refillable packaging.

Attenir has been working to commercialize eco packs since 1995, spurred on by customers who have spoken up about the wastefulness of throwing away containers after a single use.
Eco pack containers for its mainstay product, Skin Clear Cleanse Oil, use about 85% less plastic, while Attenir Primer Shot uses a refillable container that reduces the amount of plastic by 70%.
In 2023, it also launched refillable containers for the basic skincare products Dress Snow and Dress Lift, realizing a considerable further reduction in plastic use.

The percentage of plastic reduction is compared to the product's main container.

We collect and recycle used cosmetic containers.

This iniative began in July 2021 at six stores and became available at all company-owned stores in November 2023. The number of containers collected has increased dramatically, reaching a cumulative total of about 1.48 million (as of the end of December 2025), demonstrating the support and participation of many customers in the program.
Containers collected from customers have been recycled into new products such as plant pots, tote bags, and accessories. The recycled plant pots are being utilized by the local community through various initiatives, such as distribution at "Garden Necklace Yokohama," a flower and greenery event hosted by Yokohama City, which is home to FANCL's head office, as well as through the "Life Milestone Tree Project," which presents saplings to mark significant life events, and environmental activities at elementary schools within the city. Going forward, we aim to achieve closed loop recycling, in which collected cosmetic containers are transformed back into new cosmetic containers.
We believe that the environmental awareness of each and every one of us is very important in order to promote the recycling of plastic resources. We will continue to expand our activities together with our customers and other people who share the same passion.

We use materials that have a low environmental impact, such as plant-derived and recycled plastics.

PET containers used for FANCL cosmetics (the main container bottles) are now entirely made from chemically recycled PET materials (Excluding some products). In addition to the use of recycled PET in the main container bottles of basic skin care products, we also use recycled and plant-derived plastics for the caps and pumps (PP and PE).
Chemically recycled PET plastic is also used for Attenir's Skin Clear Cleanse Oil. These initiatives have achieved a considerable 87% reduction in CO₂ emissions.

We exclusively use plant-derived plastics in containers including facial cleansing powder bottles, BABY MOISTURE WASH and BABY MOISTURE MILK in our baby care line, and CLEAR UP FOAMING WASH and CLEAR UP GEL MILK in our kids care line.
We also use a plant-derived plastic made from sugar cane in the containers for Signs Effector and ATTENIR SALON PREMIUM Scalp & Volume.
