Sackville, NB
Anointment Natural Skin Care Inc., a natural skin care company based in Sackville, NB has received vegan certification for select products from US-based Vegan Action Organization, also known as vegan.org. This certification verifies that each raw ingredient in the certified vegan product does not contain animal products, byproducts, nor had the ingredient ever been tested on animals. The certification was desirable as a visible reflection to customers of our internal company values of ingredient transparency and environmental responsibility. To obtain certification Anointment was required to obtain a signed statement from each ingredient supplier verifying the product did not contain animal products nor had it ever been tested on animals. Through this process, it was confirmed that the suppliers Anointment has partnered with also take seriously transparency of their raw materials and supply chain.
As our customer base moves further from our home base in the maritimes, it is important to provide third-party accredited information to our customers who won’t have the chance to meet or talk to us personally. As we grow we rely more and more on our product packaging to tell our story, the vegan certification helps us to do that effectively. By adding the logo to our product packaging customers will immediately know that, along with our previously obtained cruelty free designation, we are committed to using plant-based ingredients in our products going forward, says owner April MacKinnon
