Breitling Oceania – DKSH Australia Sustainability Actions

Published annual mission reports

Breitling says it publishes an annual Sustainability Mission Report that covers its full sustainability work, targets, and results. A 2024 article in Europa Star says the company had just released its fourth sustainability report and that it writes the report in-house. This suggests the brand is trying to show more detail than many luxury watchmakers, with a focus on transparency and progress over time.

Built traceable gold and diamonds

Breitling says it has reshaped how it sources precious materials by using better gold and better diamonds with end-to-end traceability. It says its Origins label gives extra traceability for products with gold and diamonds, and that some watches include blockchain-backed records and an NFT (a digital record tied to a product) showing where the materials came from. The brand also says its lab-grown diamonds are fully traceable to selected producers.

Cut plastic in operations

Breitling says it is reducing plastic waste across its operations. A Surfrider Foundation article says the company switched to watch boxes made from 100% recycled PET (a type of plastic) and made straps from salvaged ghost fishing nets. The same source says Breitling replaced and recycled 4 tons of plastic in one year and is working toward removing plastic waste from global operations by 2025.

Used climate reporting frameworks

Breitling says it has used major climate and reporting frameworks such as TCFD (a climate-risk reporting guide), CSRD (an EU sustainability reporting rule), and ESRS (the reporting standards linked to CSRD). Europa Star reports that the company completed a double materiality assessment, which means it looked at both how sustainability affects the business and how the business affects people and the planet. The brand also says its climate roadmap is validated by the Science Based Targets initiative.

Supported community funds

Breitling says it has created Better Gold and Better Diamond Funds to support education and local economic development in mining communities. It also says it works with suppliers and community partners to build shared prosperity across its value chain. Europa Star adds that the brand has supported education in a remote community in Colombia through work linked to the Swiss Better Gold Association.

Joined ocean and climate projects

Breitling says it supports the Surfrider Foundation, a group that works on coastal protection and clean oceans. It also mentions Climate Impulse, a project for a nonstop around-the-world flight using green hydrogen, as part of its wider climate messaging. These actions show the brand linking its sustainability work to ocean protection and climate awareness.
