Meet Our Founder
Diane
Diane van Zwanenberg began conscious consumption along with motherhood. She questioned what value would money have if basic food and water were contaminated? Her goal was to create a more sustainable world right from our homes. It is from this vision that Diane created Coconut Matter in 2015.
Diane chose to focus on beauty and personal care products as these touch our hair, skin and mouths, and are associated with our health and wellness. These are also products we consume a lot of. How and what we consume creates waste and has an impact on the environment. Hencethe product we buy give us a voice for a cruelty-free, sustainable future.
The journey to enabling sustainability is not yet perfect, and it is going to take us time to make systematic changes. But we are passionate and focused, and we welcome you to enable us, and to share new ideas with us. We believe each of us can create a more sustainable world from our handbags and wardrobe to bathrooms and kitchen.
