GFL Cosmetics

GFL Cosmetics was founded in 1995. The company is headquartered in Lugano (Switzerland) with a production facility near Milan (Italy).
GFL specialises in high-quality cosmetics, serving both the hospitality sector (hotel amenities) and the retail market with natural, eco-friendly, and organic product lines. Their core principles include environmental commitment, quality, innovation, integrity, customer focus, and community engagement. GFL’s product range includes references certified under: COSMOS, Nordic Swan Ecolabel, RSPO, and VEGANOK.
Their manufacturing site uses 100% renewable energy (since 2018) and is equipped with closed-loop cooling systems, heat recovery technology, and LED lighting to minimise environmental impact.

Sustainable packaging is one of the strongest pillars of GFL’s environmental strategy. Use of PCR-PET (post-consumer recycled plastic) in selected bottles. FSC-certified paper and cardboard for secondary packaging. Packaging designed for easy disassembly, improving recyclability of each component. Lightweight bottles to reduce raw-material consumption. Optimized transport packaging to reduce waste and emissions during logistics. Refillable dispensers, which significantly cut down on single-use plastic in hotels and professional environments. Some packaging elements (such as amenity boxes or decorative leaf-shaped holders) are made using 100% recyclable paper, avoiding landfill-bound waste. Their approach to sustainable packaging is especially robust: through recycled materials, recyclable designs, refill systems, and concrete objectives for 2030, they demonstrate a long-term, measurable environmental strategy rather than surface-level green marketing.
