Pandora Jewelry Sustainability Actions

Switched factories to renewable power

Pandora said its jewelry crafting facilities in Thailand now run on 100% renewable electricity from local energy providers. The company also said these sites are designed to be energy efficient. This matters because electricity use is a major source of emissions in its own operations. The brand has said that most of its greenhouse gas emissions come from outside its direct operations, mainly from raw materials, packaging, stores, and transport.

Moved to recycled metals

Pandora has shifted away from mined silver and gold and toward recycled sources. One press report said the company reached 100% recycled gold and silver in its products ahead of its 2025 goal. Pandora has said recycled metals use fewer resources than mining new ones and can cut carbon emissions and water use. The company also said recycled silver and gold now make up a large share of the metals used in its jewelry.

Set up science-based climate work

Pandora said it is working with the Science Based Targets initiative, a group that helps companies set climate targets based on what science says is needed to limit warming. The company said it would publish a plan to cut emissions across its full value chain in line with the Paris Agreement, the global climate deal. This shows the brand is looking beyond its own factories and into suppliers, transport, and other linked activities.

Joined industry sustainability groups

Pandora joined the Watch and Jewellery Initiative 2030 in 2022. This is an industry group focused on climate resilience, inclusion, and better impacts on nature and communities in the jewelry supply chain. The brand also said it has worked to make its supply chain meet the standards of the Responsible Jewellery Council, a body that audits jewelry businesses against environmental and social rules.

Changed diamond sourcing

Pandora said it moved from mined diamonds to lab-grown diamonds in 2021. Lab-grown diamonds are made in factories rather than dug from the ground. The company presented this as a lower-impact option and part of its wider effort to reduce pressure on natural resources. This change sits alongside its recycled metals strategy and broader move toward a more circular business model.
