Water

We are renewing our water stewardship strategies and committing to a 35% reduction in absolute water withdrawals across our plants by FY25.

Operations

Among the founding members of the Responsible Glove Alliance (RGA), we are committed to improving labour standards alongside our partners.

Waste

We have set impressive Sustainability targets for our operations, including zero waste to landfill from manufacturing facilities by year-end 2023.
