Our Mission:
Our mission is to act responsibly, be transparent, and operate in a way that improves the lives of people and protects the planet.
-
We have achieved this by bringing an innovative approach to everything that we do, and creating a culture with sustainability at its core.
-
However, we know that there is always more that can be done, so we are continually looking for ways to improve on our sustainability efforts.

Our Targets
We have set ourselves a series of sustainability targets to be achieved over the next three years. These targets are split across 3 elements: People, The Planet & Product, so we can have an equal focus on the things that matter the most to us.

People
End of 2019
Sustainability will form a part of the everyday decision making process for all employees across all sites (offices, warehouse, and stores). We want to challenge every employee to make a difference and consider sustainability as part of their remit.
We will provide full transparency of what we are doing with a clear and detailed sustainability page on our website. This information will also be made available to all our business partners.
End of 2021
Lyle & Scott will be affiliated with a minimum of 3 charitable organisations that enhance the lives of people throughout our business; from direct employees, to employees in our supply chain, to customers.
In addition to a social and ethical audit, we will introduce ways to improve visibility of the treatment of workers within our supply chain (i.e. a worker’s hotline where grievances can be reported directly to us, allowing us to put brand pressure on suppliers and improve situations).

Planet
End of 2019
100% of our disposable product packaging (any packaging used on our product for delivery from the factory to a store/customer which is then discarded before use) will be fully recyclable, and a minimum of 50% of this packaging will be made from sustainable materials.
We will monitor and analyse our company annual carbon output, and set out plans to reduce it in 2020 & 2021.
End of 2021
We will offer a Repair/Recycle service to consumers for pre-loved Lyle & Scott products, or a similar project that will reduce the amount of landfill created by pre-loved garments.
A minimum 10% reduction in carbon output produced by Lyle & Scott (in line with sales growth).

Product
End of 2019
A minimum of 10% of our products (garments, accessories, footwear) to be manufactured in 2020 will be made from sustainable fabrics.
A minimum of 5 of our product styles to be manufactured in 2020 will have sustainable accreditation.
End of 2021
A minimum of 50% of our products (garments, accessories, footwear) to be manufactured in 2021 will be made from sustainable fabrics.
The introduction of a sustainable grading system of the entire supply chain, for improved traceability and full visibility of sustainability within our supply chain, giving us the opportunity to make improvements if necessary.
