VITAL PLUS IS CARBON NEUTRAL
Vital Plus is a NSW based Australian distributor of Gernetic and VSpa
products, supplying a wide range of spas, beauty salons and other
businesses throughout the country.
Vital Plus’s Gernétic products were first created in 1978 by French Biologist Albert Laporte. His original idea was to apply the cellulotherapy concept to formulate a product for hospitals in Paris to treat skin burns. Following this success, Gernétic has specialised in the creation of highly concentrated and highly effective products for beauty and wellbeing.
Gernétic's products are 100% natural, and are not tested on animals. In Australia, Gernétic also helps protect the environment by offsetting the carbon footprint involved in the creation and distribution of its products.
With progressive success, Vital Plus is now leading in its field as well as in climate change action. Vital Plus hopes for other businesses in the industry to follow their lead and participate in the Low Carbon Spa & Beauty Initiative.

Vital Plus owner Frank Sellam immediately took to the concept of the
Low Carbon Spa & Beauty Initiative when he first heard about it.
After an initial phone conversation and proposal, he decided to engage
the Carbon Reduction Institute to undertake a carbon footprint analysis
of his business. Frank recognised that this would give him a
significant competitive advantage over other businesses in the
industry, while allowing him to take appropriate action to reduce his
carbon footprint which he could leverage against well-founded
calculations.
The Carbon Reduction Institute determined that Frank’s business was responsible for just under 775 tonnes of CO2e last year. This number was established using internationally recognised methods and standards, and included emissions from fuel consumption, electricity; staff commuting, flights; waste and product freight as well as embodied emissions in products, assets and expenses. By purchasing carbon credits to offset those unavoidable carbon emissions, Vital Plus can now say it is truly carbon neutral.
Vital Plus purchase energy efficiency carbon credits from the HELP project in New Zealand to offset their unavoidable carbon emissions. The HELP projects distributes energy saving light globes around New Zealand households, while also assisting in educating consumers about the importance of reducing their carbon footprint at home. The HELP credits meet CRI’s stringent assessment criteria for carbon credits and bring along important other benefits.
