Luxury label Moncler has said it will go carbon neutral by 2021 as part
of its new sustainability pledge.
The up-market outerwear brand’s new ‘Moncler Born to Protect
Sustainability Plan’ focuses on five key areas: climate action, circular
economy, fair sourcing, enhancing diversity, and giving back to local
communities.
On the climate front, the label pledges to become carbon neutral by 2021
and to use 100 percent renewable energy worldwide by 2023. Other targets
include eliminating single-use plastics by 2023; using more recycled fabric
scraps and sustainable nylon; and to start recycling DIST-certified down
“through an innovative mechanical process that requires 70 percent less
water compared to traditional down recycling processes”.
The label said it will also be working closely with its business
partners to improve traceability of raw materials and improve social and
environmental standards across its supply chain.
Moncler chairman and CEO Remo Ruffini commented: “The world is facing
ever more urgent social and environmental challenges. The pandemic is a
reminder that we can, we must, always go beyond what we have already
achieved if we are to make our future better. To rise to these great
challenges, as individuals, as organizations and as companies, we must
mobilize extraordinary energies.”
