Science, nature, balance \u2013 LUMI in a nutshell!<\/p>\n                <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"regular-text-block\">\r\n    <div class=\"regular-text-block__container\">\r\n        <div class=\"regular-text-block__content\">\r\n            <p>It should be no surprise, then, that we find ourselves continually dismayed by the ongoing climate crisis the world finds itself in. We want to play our part, both in protecting the world from further damage and repairing the harm already caused.<\/p>\n<p>To this end, we constantly strive to make decisions that aren\u2019t just good for our customers, but also good for the planet. Whether this means growing our own hemp, finding new and innovative suppliers creating organic alternatives to common artificial ingredients, or cutting down on the amount of packaging we use, we\u2019re constantly on the lookout for fresh methods of reducing our environmental impact.<\/p>\n<p>Interested in learning more? Let\u2019s take a look at how our sustainable philosophy affects everything we do here at LUMI!<\/p>\n<h4><b>Grow Your Own<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>When sourcing ingredients for our skincare products, we first ask: \u2018can we grow or forage it ourselves?\u2019 If the answer is yes, then we do exactly that, and if we cannot, we look for someone in Estonia who can produce it instead. Over 95% of our ingredients are grown domestically \u2013 a figure that we are incredibly proud of, and always looking to increase!<\/p>\n<p>By operating with a pro-local mindset, it\u2019s easier to ensure the quality of our ingredients and keep supply chains short. This latter point is essential when trying to operate sustainably; it\u2019s estimated that, on average, <a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.cdp.net\/cdp-production\/cms\/reports\/documents\/000\/005\/554\/original\/CDP_SC_Report_2020.pdf?1614160765\">over 90% of companies\u2019 emissions come from supply chains<\/a>. By choosing sustainable producers that are locally based, we cut down on production and shipping emissions and keep our environmental impact as low as possible.<\/p>\n<p>We think it\u2019s important to talk about every ingredient that ends up inside a LUMI bottle, including sharing information on their provenance. Remember \u2013 sustainability without transparency is simply empty words!<\/p>\n<h4><b>Seeking Innovative Growers<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>Because we\u2019re always following the latest scientific breakthroughs in skincare, we\u2019re often searching for ingredients that are not commonplace yet. There may not be anyone growing or producing these ingredients in Estonia, or they may require a different type of climate altogether.<\/p>\n<p>In these situations, we need to look further afield. We intensively research companies from around the globe when it comes to making supplier choices, and we are uncompromising in our commitment to finding ingredients that are both perfect for our customers and sustainably produced.<\/p>\n<p>Our searching has unearthed some truly breathtaking results. We\u2019ve found and utilised Swedish algae-derived silica alternatives, zero-wastage shea butter collection that supports small African communities, and cruelty-free clay that is both ecologically and socially sustainable.<\/p>\n<p>We hope that as more and more consumers realise the benefits and untapped potential of science-led, organic skincare, demand for these fantastic ingredients will increase, and domestic suppliers will start to enter the market. When that happens, we can shorten our supply chains even further, resulting in even less environmental impact moving forwards. It pays to think big and innovate!<\/p>\n<h4><b>Packaging<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>At LUMI, we believe that the best packaging is no packaging! Unfortunately, we have to concede that some kind of packaging is inevitable for a company of our size that delivers to thousands of customers across the world. But that doesn\u2019t mean we haven\u2019t been doing everything we can to minimise our packaging\u2019s environmental impact!<\/p>\n<p>An incredible <strong>90% of our customers either choose recycled paper packaging or forego paper packaging altogether when possible.<\/strong> This greatly lowers the amount of fresh paper products that are being created on our behalf, and greatly diminishes our environmental impact! We\u2019re grateful to each and every one of you who choose these options \u2013 you\u2019re helping us make a tangible difference and you\u2019re protecting the planet by doing so. So, from all of us at LUMI \u2013 <strong><i>thank you!<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of course, there is always more that can be done. At present, plastic bottles are a necessity due to our products being preservative-free and thus needing airtight seals. However, our dream for the future is to move to fully sustainable containers for our products, such as using ocean-recycled plastics or biodegradable hemp fibre bottles.<\/p>\n<p>And we\u2019re nearer than you might think! Every day, new breakthroughs in research help us get closer to viable packaging solutions that are completely carbon neutral or negative. We\u2019re optimistic that these advances, coupled with an ever-increasing number of eco-conscious consumers, will soon make our dreams a reality. We\u2019ve got everything crossed!<\/p>\n<h4><b>Finola Hemp \u2013 Natural Carbon Capture<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>At LUMI, we always strive for more. More skin problems solved, more smiling customers, and more positive impact made on the world. That\u2019s why we don\u2019t think that simply lowering our carbon footprint is enough \u2013 we want to do our bit to repair the damage already inflicted on the planet!<\/p>\n<p>One of the most effective ways that we can achieve this is by planting more of a superstar crop called Finola hemp. Finola hemp is strong, nutritious, and extremely versatile, having hundreds of potential uses across industries as diverse as skincare and construction.<\/p>\n<p>Arguably <strong>Finola hemp\u2019s greatest strength<\/strong>, however, is its natural carbon-capturing ability. One hectare of Finola hemp removes up to<strong> 22 tonnes of CO<\/strong><strong>2 <\/strong><strong>from the air each year<\/strong>, making it one of the most efficient natural air purifiers in the world. This is alongside the immense benefits the plant brings by enriching soil with nutrients that other crops gradually strip away.<\/p>\n<p>With every LUMI purchase, we plant 1m2 of Finola hemp, cleaning 0.8kg of CO2 out of the atmosphere every year. That really adds up! This initiative, coupled with our short supply chains and other sustainable efforts, means that your LUMI purchases are carbon neutral, and often even carbon negative<\/p>\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"single-image-block\">\r\n    <div class=\"single-image-block__container\">\r\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luminordic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/58-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-7239","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.5 (Yoast SEO v27.5) -
