Sustainability
Environment
We're working hard to tackle the impact of our operations on the environment.
We build environmental factors into investment decisions, like our fulfilment centre, Skygate, in the East Midlands. Skygate has been certified as A-rated for energy efficiency by an independent third party.
We have committed to becoming net zero by 2040 and have established a science-backed, clearly defined pathway to reducing our emissions.
In an effort to accurately monitor our carbon footprint, we are continuously improving our data collection and methodology processes. Our near-term focus will be within Scope 1, Scope 2, and specific Scope 3 categories, such as purchased goods and services, capital goods, and upstream and downstream logistics.
We plan to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 42% and Scope 3 emissions by 25% by 2030. That’s why we’ve switched to renewably sourced energy for all of our UK operations.
Our environment targets
42%
reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2030
25%
reduction in absolute Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 2030
30%
reduction of our textile water footprint by 2023
2040
Reach net zero
Our environment progress
- We have switched to renewable gas across our own operations.
- We have submitted our near-term and long-term Science Based Targets to the SBTi for approval.
- We have reduced scope 1 and scope 2 greenhouse gass emissions by 67% since FY21.
