Vans sets new commitments to sustainability

Vans is reaffirming its commitment to sustainability with new targets to reduce the company’s global environmental effect, including a commitment to make all key products 100% regenerative, responsibly sourced, renewable, or recycled by 2030.

The VF Corporation’s California-based brand is working to develop recycled goods and processes that use recycled and recycled components to eliminate pollution and keep products out of landfills.

Senior Manager of Sustainability at Vans, Kim Matsoukas said Vans is all about being able to express yourself creatively. They are using creative efforts to reinvent their product lifecycle and explore new ways to preserve the atmosphere for the next generation as a purpose-driven business embedded in youth culture.

He adds that they do have a lot of work to do by collaborations with the Vans family, PUR Projet, TerraGenesis, and other major environmental organizations, but they will achieve these targets by 2030 and give the world a better future. They are proud of their community and the planet on which they live.

To meet their vision of sustainability by 2030, Vans will ensure that 100% of top products such as rubber, cotton, leather, and polyester are renewable, responsibly procured, renewable, or recycled. This was made possible by a collaboration with TerraGenesis, a manufacturer of recycled rubber, and Indigo Ag, a cotton supplier.

Furthermore, by 2025, the company plans to reduce the average effect of top products by 35%, use 50% recycled polyester, and source 100% organic cotton. It also promises a 43% cut in carbon emissions.
