Mammut

Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions and wastewater to business models and product circularity. Here we rate Mammut “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses some lower-impact materials including recycled materials.
• It’s set a science based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in both its direct operations and supply chain but there’s no evidence it is on track.
• To minimise waste, it reuses some of its textile offcuts.
• Its packaging is recyclable.
• There’s no evidence it’s taking actions to protect biodiversity in its supply chain.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assess brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Mammut “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• Its final production stage is monitored by the Fair Wear Foundation.
• It provides a confidential complaints mechanism for workers in its supply chain to report harassment or violence.
• Its Code of Conduct covers ILO Four Fundamental Freedoms principles.
• It claims to have a program to improve wages but there’s no evidence it ensures its workers are paid living wages in most of its supply chain.
• During the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, it disclosed some policies to protect workers in its supply chain from the virus.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Here we rate Mammut “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It appears to use leather, wool, and down.
• A high proportion of its animal-derived materials consist of recycled or certified alternatives to conventional wool and down.
• It doesn’t appear to use fur, angora, shearling, cashmere, alpaca, or mohair.
• It states that it sources wool from non-mulesed sheep.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Mammut “It's a Start” overall.
