Wherever you see the Climate Neutral Certified label, it means the company is accountable for its greenhouse gas emissions. To earn the label, a company must annually measure cradle-to-customer emissions, implement specific action plans to reduce emissions, and invest in high quality, verified carbon credits.
The certification requirements are detailed in the rigorous, peer-reviewed Climate Neutral Certified Standard. Each company’s application is reviewed for compliance by Change Climate’s certification team.

At Saie, our sustainability efforts go far beyond our dedication to clean, environmentally-conscious ingredients alone. Our goal is to make sure thoughtful, sustainable action is taken across every facet of our brand — from how we source those ingredients to the way we package our products, to the shipping materials we use and the recycling standards we encourage our community to practice. Becoming Climate Neutral Certified is the next step in our journey towards achieving 'net zero' carbon emissions. We are so excited that we've been able to offset all of our non-reduced emissions through various carbon drawdown projects as well as work on ongoing reduction plans to get us one step closer to our goal. These actions are only just the beginning. Our commitment to true long-term sustainability means continuing to push for mindful choices that not only care for the skin we're in but the planet we all share.
