C&A details progress in 2018 Global Sustainability Report

C&A has reduced its carbon and water footprints significantly by sourcing more sustainable raw materials. In 2018, C&A's global sustainable materials strategy — driven by more sustainable sources of cotton and cellulosic fibres — avoided 116,000 tons of CO2 emissions, equivalent to the yearly CO2 emissions of over 70,000 passenger cars. C&A also saved 1 billion m3 of water – the equivalent of 400,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools. This and other progress is detailed in C&A’s annual Global Sustainability Report, published today.
