Kering to promote clean fashion

Luxury giant Kering has been tasked to bring together a group of brands to set unified sustainability goals for the sector. Over the next couple of months, Kering will pull together a broad coalition of industry players willing to unite behind long-term goals to reduce the industry’s negative impact on climate, biodiversity and oceans.

Kering has been at the forefront of efforts to address the industry’s sustainability challenges. It has spent years tracing and measuring the environmental impact of its supply chain, publishing an account of the cost of its business to the planet. It has set a new target to push for stricter animal welfare standards in its supply chain for products like leather, handbags and cashmere suits. It has pledged to hire models over 18.

The fashion industry is one of the most polluting in the world and has struggled to find ways to tackle its environmental impact. While the industry has made significant improvements in recent years, those advances have stalled over the last twelve months as big brands struggle to drive changes to the way they operate. At the same time, the industry is facing growing pressure from regulators and consumers to operate in a more socially and environmentally responsible way.
