We are committed to continually working to make our products better both for you and our planet. We achieve this through seeking and using innovative materials and have targets to increase our use of recycled, repurposed, regenerated (plant based), renewable (bio based), and certified fibers by 35% by 2027. We have passionate teams building the framework that make such changes possible, that constantly imagine and re-imagine what it means to make a meaningful impact.

PART OF A FAMILY: OUR COMMITMENTS TO MATERIAL INNOVATION
1 October 2020
Our materials and supply chain are a huge part of our journey to corporate sustainability, which is why we stand behind UNGC Sustainable Development Goal #12 – Responsible Consumption & Production.
UGG is committed to empowering you with information on the materials that go into our products, particularly animal-based materials, and drive confidence in our commitment to ensuring a responsible supply chain.
Our materials and supply chain are a huge part of our journey to corporate sustainability, which is why we support responsible consumption and production. We are always seeking sustainable alternatives for key materials, and strive to source materials like leather, cotton, wool and down from suppliers that are certified by third-party benchmarking organizations.
