About Aveda
Founded in 1978 in Minneapolis, MN, Aveda creates high-performance hair, skin and body products for beauty professionals and consumers. Aveda innovates in botanical technologies, combining the principles of modern science and Ayurveda, the ancient healing art of India, to develop performance-driven hair, skin and body products—made with pure flower and plant essences—that are created with respect for the Earth, and a comprehensive menu of ritual-based treatments for holistic beauty.
Throughout the years, Aveda has pioneered new benchmarks of environmental responsibility in beauty. It was the first company to sign the Ceres Principles in 1989—a nonprofit organization mobilizing business leadership on climate change, water scarcity and other sustainability challenges—and the first beauty company to manufacture products with 100 percent wind power through renewable energy credits and carbon offsets. In June 2020, Aveda unveiled a 3.6 acre, 900kW ground-mounted solar array at its primary facility, which provides up to 50% of the annual energy demand for manufacturing, with the remainder powered by wind. This array offsets more than 1,100 metric tons of CO2 annually.
Aveda was also the first beauty company to receive a Cradle to Cradle charter for its commitment to sustainable products, packaging and production. In 2013, Aveda was honored with the first Legacy Leaders Award from Cradle to Cradle for its pioneering role in environmental leadership. Aveda received the Sustainability Leadership Award in 2017 during the Sustainable Beauty Awards organized by Ecovia Intelligence for its leadership in packaging, green formulations and sustainable ingredients, and was a finalist for the same award in 2020. Since 1999, Aveda’s annual Earth Month campaign, held each April, has raised over $67 million to support environmental projects around the world.
Aveda products are available in Aveda Experience Centers and more than 9,000 professional hair salons and spas in more than 45 countries and at aveda.com.
