How we live
sustainability

At BYNACHT, we want to
sleep well, too.

BYNACHT® is uncompromisingly cruelty free and we do not test finished products or ingredients on animals.
Neither do our suppliers or any third parties we work with.

BYNACHT® also was one of the first ever german prestige skincare brands that skipped cellophane from the beginning and only used FSC certified paper and carton for our packaging. Up until today we are constantly working on making our packaging materials even more eco-friendly than they already are by using glass whenever and wherever possible and where Co2 emissions are better. We strive to be completely climate neutral by 2023 and already offset all unavoidable CO emissions and have partnered with Terracycle. TerraCycle® is a social enterprise Eliminating the Idea of Waste® and is working in over 21 countries worldwide with leading in taking hard-to-recycle materials and turning them into new products.

Clean Formulas

BYNACHT® believes in the power of nature. We are proud to use natural ingredients whenever possible and use active botanical ingredients and sustainable fair trade sources from German and Austrian Organic Farms in our formulas.

Essential oils are a gift from nature. Our essential oils being used in our “Sleep Perfectors” are also 100% pure and organic and sustainably sourced and with both environmentally sustainable and economical. All of our oils are free from chemical additives or contaminants and from Certified Fair Trade Farms.

Because essential oils have the ability to work at the cellular level, aiding us in our wellness, the integrity of the oil must be verified and legitimate for the most impact and safety which is one of our core values at BYNACHT®:

Granted, one drop of an essential oil does represent a lot of plant material, we use that precious drop wisely, understanding and honoring its potency. All our formulas are dermatologist approved and suitable even for sensitive skin. Our products are 100% free of Parabens, silicones, PEGs, triclosans, formadelhyde, phalates, petrolatum, GMOs, EDTA, artificial colors, paraffins and nitrates.

 

Sustainable packaging

Sustainable packaging

Approximately 90% of our primary packaging is fully recyclable. We use glass whenever and wherever possible and where Co2 emissions are better. 100% of our secondary packaging fully recyclable, and we use FSC Certified paper. An estimated 85 % of our packaging is plastic-free, and we continue to move toward pumps, caps and other appliances from ocean recycled plastic.

Our total packaging is ECOCERT/COSMOS certified where possible.

 

Sustainable Sourcing

Sustainable sourcing and our science ethos

Our ingredients are not only sustainably sourced but also come from small, certified fair trade farms from all over Germany and Austria wherever possible. We already offer 70% vegan choices in our products.

Our ethos is leading us towards carefully examining the performance of all our ingredients and we are backing their effectiveness relentlessly in scientific procedures based on scientific data.
