Princess Polly Sustainability Actions

Lower Impact collection launched

Princess Polly has a Lower Impact collection that uses mainly organic and reclaimed materials. Organic means the material was grown without most synthetic pesticides or fertilisers. Reclaimed means the material was recovered and used again instead of being made from new raw material. This suggests the brand has started offering some lower-impact fashion options, even though independent reviewers say the wider business still relies heavily on conventional cotton, polyester, nylon, and viscose.

Renewable power for offices

The brand says it uses renewable electricity in its corporate offices in Australia. Renewable electricity comes from sources that can be replaced naturally, such as wind or solar power. Independent reviewers note that the brand may also use renewable energy in other parts of its business, but it does not explain the scale or source clearly. That means the office energy step is real, but the full picture is still not fully transparent.

Take-back partnership with Trashie

Princess Polly has a take-back partnership with Trashie, which accepts clothes, shoes, and bedding from any brand for recycling, downcycling, or resale. Recycling turns used items into new material. Downcycling means the item is turned into a lower-value product. This is a waste-reduction step, but the independent review says the company does not share enough detail about how well the program works.

Supply chain code of conduct

The brand publishes a supplier code of conduct and says it traces part of its supply chain. A supplier code of conduct is a set of rules for factories and suppliers. Princess Polly’s code includes collective bargaining rights, bans forced labour and child labour, adds environmental rules, and sets grievance channels so workers can raise concerns. The company also says it audits suppliers, although the review says the audit frequency is unclear.

Emissions measured and targets set

Princess Polly measures its emissions and has long-term reduction targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative, or SBTi. Emissions are the greenhouse gases a company creates. SBTi checks whether climate targets match what science says is needed to limit warming. The review says the brand reported progress on its scope 3 target, which covers indirect emissions across the supply chain, but it is not on track and has not reported progress on its scope 1 and 2 targets.
