Our Commitments

Preserve is committed to improving our environment as well as our community. We've created this space to communicate some of the formal commitments we've made in union with other mission-driven organizations/businesses. Beyond those listed below, Preserve has signed on to many open letters in support of policies that we believe lead to better working conditions, a better environment, and a more just society.

B Corporation

Preserve became a B Corp in 2011. While we were founded as a mission-driven organization, becoming a B Corp formalized this and solidified our commitment to using business as a force for good. Every three years we recertify, measuring against metrics that focus on environment, community, workers and transparent governance.

Net Zero by 2030

In December 2019, Preserve joined more than 500 B Corps around the world committing to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2030 – 20 years ahead of the 2050 targets set in the Paris Agreement. This commitment, announced during COP25, is part of the most accelerated climate action by the largest constituency of businesses in the world.

Ellen MacArthur New Plastics Economy Global Commitment

In 2018, Preserve became a signatory of the Ellen MacArthur New Plastics Economy Global Commitment. The Global Commitment unites businesses, governments and other organizations behind a common vision and ambitious targets to address plastic waste and pollution at its source, and is led by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation in collaboration with the UN Environment Programme.

As a signatory, we have made commitments to eliminate certain plastics in our products and packaging while ensuring that the vast majority of all the plastic we use is reusable, recyclable, or compostable by 2025.

1% for the Planet – Product Member

Preserve became a 1% for the Planet Product Member at the start of 2026. Joining this community, committed to giving back to our planet, is a step Preserve has wanted to take since the initiative was founded in 2002 by Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies.

As a Product Member, we commit to giving 1% of revenue from the sales of key product lines annually to causes we feel passionate about that address the health of our planet. We chose our Shave and Oral Care lines because they are our best sellers, and they let us build on our existing environmental donation commitments through our POPi program. We appreciate 1% for the Planet's simple model and commitment to accountability, and we are honored to be part of this program.
