Gap Australia Sustainability Actions

Uses some lower-impact materials

Good On You reports that Gap uses some more eco-friendly materials, including recycled inputs, as part of its product mix. The assessment presents this as a partial environmental measure rather than a comprehensive materials strategy, and it notes that there is no evidence the company is reducing textile waste in manufacturing. The available information indicates a limited but existing effort to shift some material choices toward lower-impact options.

Set an emissions target

The Good On You assessment says Gap has set a science-based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from its own operations and supply chain. The same source also states that there is no evidence the company is currently on track to meet that target. This indicates that a formal climate objective has been established, but independent evidence of delivery or progress was not identified in the material provided.

Disclosed water security data

Gap received an A- in the Carbon Disclosure Project water security questionnaire, according to Good On You. The rating is presented as evidence that the company shows comparatively stronger management of water use in its supply chain than in some other ESG areas. The source does not describe the full scope of the underlying programme, but it does indicate a documented disclosure and assessment on water-related risk.

Avoids some animal materials

Good On You states that Gap does not use fur, down, angora, or exotic animal skin. The same assessment also notes that the company still uses leather, wool, and exotic animal hair without stating the sources of those materials. This means the brand has taken some steps to exclude certain high-concern animal inputs, while remaining exposed to sourcing transparency concerns in other categories.
