Where We're At

From recycled fishing nets to natural yarns, we’re on a journey to create clothing that cares both for your body and the planet. So far: In spring/summer 2022, 100% of our swimwear featured recycled materials. We use organic and recycled cotton in many of our products. Including our super soft Italian fleeces, our After Class Sweatshirts. Our Mindful range is made from Lenzing Modal, a responsibly sourced wood fibre. For every tree felled, Lenzing plants two more. This is the start. But certainly not the end.

Where We're Going

We are in the process of setting product category specific sustainability goals and in the meantime remain focused on sourcing either recycled or made from responsibly sourced natural fibres wherever we can. Our transparency promise? We commit to 100% transparency on all fabric compositions.

Where We're At

Over the last two years, we’ve taken important steps to reduce our carbon emissions. Our owned and operated UK stores and our UK office now run on 100% renewable electricity. We've rolled out LED lighting across our UK stores over the past two years. LED lighting lasts longer and uses less electricity than incandescent bulbs.

Where We're Going

In 2020 we measured our total carbon footprint for both our own operations and our supply chain for the first time. Based on that, we set science-based reduction targets which have now been validated by the Science Based Target initiative (SBTi). These targets align with the Paris Climate Agreement to limit global warming to well-below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursue efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C. We are committing to… A 42% absolute reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in all the facilities we own and operate in by 2030. (2020 base year) A reduction in scope 3 emissions from Sweaty Betty branded purchased goods and services, and upstream transportation and distribution 52% per unit value added by 2030 (against a 2020 baseline year).

Where We're At

We work with textile manufacturers who use safe chemistry and water treatment practices. We’re phasing out harmful finishes on our products such as Per fluorinated Compounds (PFCs). These are chemicals which have been used for many years because of their water repellent properties. We now know that these don’t break down and can be harmful to the environment.
