APG & Co Sustainability Actions

Publishes factory lists

APG & Co is fully aligned with the Transparency Pledge, which means it regularly publishes a list of the sites that make its products. This matters because supply chain transparency helps outside groups check where clothes are made and spot human rights risks more easily. The pledge is used in the fashion industry as a basic test of openness, not as proof that every factory is problem-free.

Improved packaging score

The company received a packaging performance level of 3 out of 5, called Advanced, in APCO’s 2026 annual report. APCO, the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation, measures how well members are managing packaging and moving toward a circular economy, which means keeping materials in use for longer and reducing waste. This suggests APG & Co has made some progress on packaging, though it is not at the top level.

Uses non-mulesed wool

Human Society International Australia lists brands owned by APG & Co as using 100% non-mulesed wool or having a time-bound plan to do so. Non-mulesed wool means the wool comes from sheep that were not subjected to mulesing, a painful skin-removal practice used in some sheep farming. This is a positive animal welfare step, although it applies only to part of the company’s materials.

Disclosed modern slavery info

A Human Rights Law Centre review found that APG & Co’s modern slavery statement scored in the 61–80% range for disclosure quality. A modern slavery statement is a report companies use to explain how they look for and reduce risks of forced labour and other exploitation in their supply chains. The score suggests the company gave a fairly detailed public account, but it does not prove that all risks have been removed.

Signed Uzbek cotton pledge

APG & Co signed the Uzbek Cotton Pledge, a public promise not to knowingly source cotton from Uzbekistan while forced labour was still a concern in that sector. The pledge was later lifted in 2022 after outside monitoring found no state-imposed forced labour in the 2021 harvest. This shows the company took part in a wider industry effort to avoid high-risk cotton sourcing.
