Laneay’s Organics Expands Sustainability Initiative with Carbonfund

June 01, 2021

Laneay’s Organics is a black woman owned small business that makes handcrafted, all natural skincare products using certified organic, non-GMO ingredients. All of Laneay’s Organics’ products are free of any preservatives, artificial fragrances, additives, phthalates, formaldehyde, alcohol and any other chemical not listed here. The company’s mission is self-care through skincare with the most unaltered, high quality, nutrient rich, skin loving ingredients.  This important message of self-care as well as the sanctity of the planet is at the forefront of Laneay’s Organics.    

As part of its sustainability mission, Laneay’s Organics recently joined the Carbonfree Business Partnership Program, in order to neutralize carbon emissions from its first-year operations and shipping products to its customers. By supporting Carbonfund’s forest conservation and reforestation projects around the world, Laneay’s Organics has neutralized 36 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions, equivalent to the environmental benefit of planting about 600 trees and allowing those trees to grow and absorb carbon dioxide for ten years.

“We are so proud to be a part of the Carbonfree Business Partnership Program as we continue to do our part to be a business that leaves no negative trace on our planet,” explains Laneay Van Johnson, Owner of Laneay’s Organics.  “We are committed to practicing sustainability and we look forward to learning more ways to do this and lessen our carbon footprint while also giving back to the very causes that have a positive/regenerative impact on our planet.  We only get one body, one canvas and one planet. The time to be good to ourselves and our planet is always now.” 

In addition to its carbon neutrality initiative, Laneay’s Organics uses 100% recyclable/reusable packaging for all products with eco-friendly and recyclable labeling.  All products are shipped in recycled/recyclable/reusable packaging.  Laneay’s Organics takes care to source ingredients from Climate Pledge Friendly companies whenever possible and to make small batches of products to prevent waste. The company is striving to make as little to no environmental impact on our planet and continue to research ways to extend and improve on this commitment.
