Wrangler Australia Sustainability Actions

Uses some lower-impact materials

Wrangler has already started using some lower-impact materials, including recycled materials. This suggests it is trying to reduce the environmental impact of some products, especially compared with using only new raw materials. The available information does not say how much of its range uses these materials or how quickly this is changing, so the scale of the effort is still unclear.

Set a science-based target

Wrangler has set a science-based target to cut greenhouse gas emissions in both its own operations and its supply chain. A science-based target means the goal is meant to match climate science, not just a company’s own estimate. Good On You notes that there is no evidence the brand is currently on track, so the target exists but progress is not publicly clear.

Trains designers on circularity

Wrangler says it trains its designers to improve the circularity of its products. Circularity means making products in a way that keeps materials in use for longer, such as by designing for repair, reuse, or recycling. This is a useful step, but the public information does not show how much it has changed product design or how many products are affected.

Published a biodiversity policy

Wrangler has published a biodiversity protection policy that applies to some of its supply chain. Biodiversity means the variety of plants, animals, and ecosystems. A policy like this can help reduce harm to nature, but the wording shows it does not cover the whole supply chain, so the reach of the policy appears limited.

Modern slavery recruitment checks

Wrangler says its recruitment procedures are designed to identify and support workers who may be at risk of modern slavery. Modern slavery is a term for forced labour and other forms of severe worker exploitation. It also says its Code of Conduct covers ILO principles, which are basic labour standards set by the International Labour Organization.

Supported suppliers during Covid-19

During the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, Wrangler disclosed some policies aimed at protecting workers in its supply chain from the virus. This shows it took some steps to respond to a major health risk affecting factory and supply-chain workers. The available information does not give full details on how broad or lasting those protections were.
