Sustainability & Environmental Initiatives
At 2San we take steps every day as a business and as individuals to reduce our impact on the environment.
Creating a healthy and sustainable environment where we can all live and flourish is part of Better Care. Better Life.
OUR EVERY DAY ACTIONS CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
In 2026 we have decided that we will be reducing our level of events participation throughout the year. This means we will have less of our global team traveling which is a great way to reduce emissions.
We also use sustainable packaging and processes with our supplier partners and meet regularly to discuss and explore new options to achieve better outcomes with less impact.
On a day-to-day basis, we practice awareness and action in our offices by:
Using reusable containers and cups
Limiting lighting and ‘vampire’ electronics
Using smart and efficient lighting when it is needed
Using smart and efficient lighting when it is needed
Limited mailings of promotional or other information, we use digital when possible
Supporting hybrid work schedules for employees, reducing emissions and fuel usage
Participating in all available recycling programs at our offices

How we work with our Supplier Partners on Sustainability
We prioritize partners who have achieved ISO 14001 Certification.
We are committed to ensuring that we are delivering packaging that is recyclable and are optimizing materials in our product design to eliminate anything not absolutely necessary
One example of efficiency is demonstrated in our covid-19 test kits, by using the outer carton as the test tube holder to conduct the test, we were able to eliminate the need to include this separate piece and more fully utilize the box.
There are ongoing initiatives with our packaging partners to optimize the sizes of our product cartons which reduces waste, and also optimizes transport and freight which supports lowering emissions

How2Recycle
We actively partner with How2Recycle® (H2R) to ensure we are educating consumers on what packaging can and cannot be recycled.
How2Recycle®, a project of the non-profit GreenBlue, is a standardized labeling system that clearly communicates disposal instructions to the public.
How2Recycle aims to eliminate consumer confusion, improve the reliability, completeness, and transparency of recyclability claims, and drive responsible packaging design. How2Recycle labels are designed to follow all applicable legislation in the United States and Canada.
