MATERIALS DESIGNED
FOR DISRUPTION

Creative sustainable disruption starts with lower impact materials. By sourcing sustainably to ramp up recycled, organic and regenerative alternatives while innovating for manufacturing efficiencies, we’re steps closer to our goals.

MATERIALS TRACEABILITY

We’ve focused a lot of attention on traceability to make sure our high standards for the materials we use in our collections are followed right from the beginning. Our efforts are illustrated in a year-on-year comparison.

SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS ACROSS OUR COLLECTIONS

To help reduce our footprint we’ve been incorporating recycled, organic, regenerated, responsible and certified materials in our collections, as well as innovating lower impact processes for them, as outlined in the graphic.

AVOIDED IMPACTS AND SAVINGS IN 2022 IN NUMBERS

To avoid and reduce our environmental impacts, we’ve been focusing on targeted actions like responsible sourcing for lower-impact materials and increasing recycled materials; adopting more efficient processes; using green energy; and innovating through circularity as revealed in the year-on-year table.
