Unilever PLC

Our Opinion

Unilever Plc is on the Cruelty Free Investing list for exploiting animals because the company does animal testing in developing some of their cosmetic and day care products.

Supporting Evidence:

Report that specifies that the company conducts animal testing.

“We do not test our products on animals, but occasionally some ingredients we use have been tested to meet government requirements”
