The LYCRA Company’s Sustainability Progress In 2022

The LYCRA Company announced the publication of its second annual Planet Agenda Update and its abridged Global Sustainability Scorecard for fiscal year 2022.

Planet Agenda is the company’s sustainability framework built on three pillars: product sustainability, manufacturing excellence and corporate responsibility. These sustainability goals align with the five United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

“Planet Agenda guides our evolution as we strive to contribute to the sustainability of the apparel and personal care industries by delivering products that add value and conserve resources at all levels of the value chain,” said Steve Stewart, Chief Brand and Innovation Officer of The LYCRA Company.

“We are proud of the advances we have made in pursuit of our 2030 goals. At the same time, we recognise that the challenges in front of our industry are great, and we can only meet them by working with our customers, suppliers, and third-party partners.”

Highlights of the 2022 Planet Agenda Update include innovative sustainable fashion, recycled and renewable inputs, reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and three manufacturing sites achieving third-party verified top-quartile performance in the Higg Facility Environmental Module (FEM).

The company sees Planet Agenda as a shared endeavour with customers and partners. The urgent need for collaboration throughout the value chain inspired the 2022 Planet Agenda Update theme: Together, we go further.
