Sustainability
Taking care of and preserving our planet is at the heart of our business.
Helping our customers become more sustainable
Sustainability is in the very core of our purpose and strategy. We want to inspire businesses to grow in a sustainable way. As our business model is based on circular economy, we know that it is possible. For decades, we have been on a mission to avoid overproduction of textiles and optimise the use of natural resources.
Textile waste recycling
In 2023, we recycled 74% of our textile waste (target 100% by 2025). Our bold goal is to close the loop and use our textile waste as raw material for our new textiles
Net-zero emissions
Our target is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50% across the value chain by 2030, ultimately achieving net-zero emissions by 2050
Sustainable Materials
We aim to increase the sustainability of our materials. Our goal is that 30% of our new textiles include recucled or bio-based materials by 2025.
