Company profile

Shiseido

Shiseido makes the Top 10 because its disclosures are disciplined, its packaging innovation is real, and its governance quality is stronger than much of the category, even if the broader product-loop story is still developing.

Score breakdown

Resource efficiency

84

Refill systems and packaging innovation such as LiquiForm improve the resource story, but the category-wide circular model is not yet market-defining.

Impact on environment

86

Climate and water management are serious, but Scope 3 remains substantially larger than direct operational emissions.

Social responsibility

84

Gender representation and responsible procurement structures are credible, although upstream raw-material risks still require ongoing scrutiny.

Economic benefits

82

The long-run value case is built around premium innovation and risk management rather than a radically lower-cost beauty model.
