PUMA released its 2022 CSR report detailing progress against its 2025 sustainability targets. It achieved many targets including using 100% renewable electricity and procuring nearly all cotton and leather from sustainable sources. However, fatal accidents at supplier facilities and an increase in scope 3 emissions show more work is needed in health and safety and reducing supply chain emissions. PUMA will conduct a new materiality assessment to guide its sustainability strategy beyond 2025.
May 2024. Sustainable Clothing, also called Sustainable Fashion, or Sustainable Apparel, is a type of clothing that is designed, manufactured, marketed, worn, and recycled with minimal impact on the environment, such as reduced waste, carbon emissions and energy consumption.
Sustainable clothing is made of biodegradable materials derived from natural or recycled fabric, which reduces energy, water, emissions, and chemical consumption, lowering the overall carbon footprint and pollution.
Sustainable clothing benefits and advantages:
(1) Economic: Saves on resource and energy costs. Increases revenue as environmentally conscious consumers choose sustainable clothing.
(2) Social: Improves the health, well-being, and social responsibility of both employees and consumers.
(3) Environmental: Reduces environmental impact by minimizing carbon footprint and emissions.
(4) Quality: Focuses on producing durable, high-quality clothing, minimizing the need for frequent replacements, and reducing waste.
Sustainable clothing challenges and solutions:
(1) Cost: Sustainable clothing is usually more expensive than traditional non-sustainable clothing options.
Solution: The high initial cost of sustainable clothing is offset by cost savings from reduced waste and energy consumption. Also, high-quality clothes lead to satisfied customers, resulting in repeat purchases, positive reviews, and increased sales and revenue.
(2) Logistics: Implementing sustainable clothing requires changes to logistics and supply chain, which can be challenging to manage.
Solution: Work with suppliers and logistics providers to develop and implement efficient sustainable clothing strategies and procedures.
(3) Policies: Sustainable clothing is subject to various policies and regulations, which can be complex depending on the region.
Solution: Get familiar with policies and regulations and collaborate with policymakers and experts to ensure compliance.
(4) Awareness: Lack of awareness and education promoting sustainable clothing among consumers.
Solution: Launch marketing and educational programs and campaigns to raise awareness about the benefits of sustainable clothing among consumers.
Policy wise, in 2018, at the Fourth United Nations (UN) Environment Assembly in Kenya, the UN Alliance for Sustainable Fashion (UNASF) initiative was adopted to promote projects and policies that align the sustainable fashion value chain with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), directly supporting SDG12: Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns.
In this slideshow, you will learn about the definition, features, benefits, advantages, challenges, solutions, UN policy, circular economy, and global statistics of Sustainable Clothing and Sustainable Fashion.

Sustainability at Constellium is based on clear commitments in four key areas – products, people, operations and governance – each of them backed by 12 concrete targets and associated metrics for monitoring performance. These commitments are set out in the company’s Sustainability Charter, which builds on the continuity of Constellium’s sustainability efforts over many years.
Recycling and innovation are the hallmarks of Constellium’s strategy for products, while safety performance is clearly the overriding concern for our people. Energy efficiency based on recognized management systems, along with significant improvement plans for waste are the main priorities for operations. Our action on governance involves partnerships with suppliers, customers, industry associations and multi-stakeholder initiatives – the company is clear about the need for transparency over the impact of its activities.
Given its importance for every company, delivering customer satisfaction is woven into our actions in all four of these areas.
Constellium’s ambition is to develop its sustainability agenda through teamwork, both internally and with its external partners. With this collective effort, we can achieve our goal of being “Altogether more sustainable”.

To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.
Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
Dive into the innovative world of smart garages with our insightful presentation, "Exploring the Future of Smart Garages." This comprehensive guide covers the latest advancements in garage technology, including automated systems, smart security features, energy efficiency solutions, and seamless integration with smart home ecosystems. Learn how these technologies are transforming traditional garages into high-tech, efficient spaces that enhance convenience, safety, and sustainability.
Ideal for homeowners, tech enthusiasts, and industry professionals, this presentation provides valuable insights into the trends, benefits, and future developments in smart garage technology. Stay ahead of the curve with our expert analysis and practical tips on implementing smart garage solutions.

18. SUSTAINABILITY TEAM
In terms of sustainability, the highest governance body at PUMA is
the Sustainability Committee of the Supervisory Board. Within their
Management Board, sustainability falls under the responsibility of
the Chief Sourcing Officer, although all members of the PUMA
Management Board are frequently updated on sustainability topics.
Furthermore, the functional heads of PUMA at SE level are
members of the Executive Sustainability Committee. This group of
Managers is responsible for the supervision and setting-up of our
sustainability strategy. In regular meetings, the members oversee
the progress of PUMA against their sustainability targets. Dedicated
corporate and supply chain sustainability departments continuously
work on improving PUMA’s sustainability performance.
19. INDUSTRY PEERS
In an industry where many suppliers are
shared among brands, they cannot do it
alone. Therefore, PUMA is working with
their industry peers towards harmonizing
sustainability standards and joint efforts
towards implementing good practices to
create positive impact.
20. Living by our principles
We are committed to various environmental, social and
governance (ESG) principles that help us operate effectively
and invest responsibly. In adopting these principles, we want
to ensure that everyone who works with us has the same aim
– to support our stakeholders and positively impact the wider
community to which we belong. These principles cover five
broad areas:
Governance
Environment
Marketplace
Workplace
Community
21. Puma Property Finance
Over the years, puma have delivered an array of social
infrastructure developments throughout the UK.
The residential property developments we finance
frequently include an afforable housing allocation.

23. Conclusion
In 2022, PUMA achieved several noteworthy
accomplishments in terms of sustainability. The
company secured the top position in the
Business of Fashion Sustainability ranking,
achieved the
highest score for apparel and footwear in the
living wage financials benchmarking, and was
added to
the CDP A list for leading climate disclosures.
Additionally, PUMA received a Sustainability
Leadership Award from Footwear News
America.
24. Despite the challenges, PUMA remained committed to its Forever Better sustainability strategy and
sustainability targets. Many of these goals, set in 2019, have already been attained or are nearing
completion. For instance, nearly all of PUMA's cotton, leather, and cardboard materials now originate
from preferred and sustainable sources like BCI cotton, LWG leather, and FSC-certified paper. Almost
half of the global polyester used by PUMA is now sourced from recycled feedstocks.
PUMA continues to use 100% renewable electricity for its operations and is making strides in
transitioning its vehicle fleet to electric cars. To reduce its logistics carbon footprint, the company
introduced its first electric truck and embarked on low-carbon sea freight trials from sourcing
countries in Asia to Europe.
rogress was also made in paying living wages to both PUMA employees and some suppliers'
workers. Over 140,000 individuals received training in women's empowerment.
However, PUMA acknowledged that previous climate targets weren't ambitious enough to align with a
1.5-degree pathway, prompting the establishment of new climate targets.
25. Some materials, like polyurethane, EVA, and rubber, are in the early stages of transitioning to more
sustainable alternatives. Despite supply chain decarbonization efforts, PUMA's strong growth in 2022
led to an increase in Scope 3 emissions instead of the necessary decrease for the new target
Tragically, PUMA experienced fatal accidents at manufacturing partner facilities, highlighting the need
for enhanced safety measures.The company will strive for safer working conditions globally and plans
to certify its health and safety management system. While acknowledging progress, PUMA
acknowledges the long road ahead and plans to conduct a new materiality assessment in 2023, leading
to the shaping of its sustainability strategy beyond 2025 and toward 2030.
