Good

    Puma uses some lower emissions materials such as recycled cotton, recycled polyester, and BCI cotton, as well as high emissions materials including conventional cotton and polyester.

    It has plans to reduce its reliance on high emissions materials and has set 2025 targets for percentage of certified or recycled materials. It has also reported on progress towards these goals within the last year.

  • Energy Use & Production

    Puma shares information on its energy strategy. It has started to incorporate renewable energy to power its production sites, and its corporate offices, warehouses and storefronts run on 100% renewable energy. Puma has targets for expanding its use of renewable energy in its supply chain. It implements energy efficiency measures in its production sites, corporate offices, and storefronts. Puma sources and manufactures its materials globally, which is standard practice in the textile industry.


  • Packaging & Distribution

    Puma has made efforts to reduce virgin plastic in its packaging. It uses eco-friendly materials in its packaging, including ones that are FSC-certified, recycled. It has also made efforts to minimize the amount of material used in its packaging. Puma is working to reduce its shipping emissions by reducing the proportion of transport carried out by air freight, the most carbon-intensive mode of transport. Its airfreight reduction target helped reduce the share of emissions from airfreight from 56.4% in 2019 to 12.5% in 2024. PUMA works with logistics service providers on the use of alternative fuels for marine shipping or road transport.


  • Repair & Care

    Puma offers free shared repair guides under the Re:HACKS header. Puma doesn't offer a warranty. It gives basic care instructions that can help extend product lifespan.


  • Take Back Programs

    Puma has a take back program called RE:FIBRE. This program accepts any brand's clothes for recycling. Puma shares details on how successful this program is at diverting items from landfills.


  • Slow Fashion

    Puma offers some products across multiple seasons but also releases new items frequently throughout the year.


  • Marketing

    Commons is still evaluating this brand's marketing emails.


  • Transparency & Reporting

    Puma has a prominent sustainability page with comprehensive details on its climate strategy. It publishes a detailed annual report with a clear, impact-driven strategy and progress reporting. Its last annual report was published in 2024.


  • Emissions Tracking

    Puma internally measures and publicly reports its emissions in partnership with a third party. It includes a breakdown by scope and identifies its top driver of emissions. The last reporting period was 2024. In its most recent update, its estimated emissions footprint was 1,581,826 tons CO2e.


  • Targets & Offsets

    Puma has SBTi-approved emissions reduction targets for the short-term (1-5 years). It has reported on its progress within the past year, and is on track for some of its targets. Commons couldn't find evidence that this brand offsets any emissions.


  • Supply Chain & Labor

    Puma publishes information about its supply chain partners, disclosing their geographic locations across Tier 1 (final production manufacturing), and Tier 2-3 (materials and packaging sourcing). It publicly shares a supplier code of conduct, which prohibits forced labor, prohibits child labor, includes environmental clauses, ensures a living wage, ensures the right to collective bargaining, establishes grievance mechanisms. Its code of conduct doesn't disallow unauthorized subcontracting. Puma has a stated policy of regularly auditing its supply chain partners, which can mitigate human and environmental risks.

Puma has a Good rating because it is taking many active steps to improve its products, operations, and emissions impact, and it shares thorough reporting on its progress.

Puma uses a mix of materials, but has plans to reduce its use of high emissions materials and improve its materials footprint. It doesn't offer repair services, but it helps take responsibility for the full lifecycle of its products by offering a take back program for recycling, called RE:FIBRE.

Puma reports on its renewable energy strategy - which includes using 100% renewables in its offices and stores - and its emissions measurement and reduction efforts. It has SBTi-approved emissions reduction targets that are partially on track. Its supplier code of conduct is more thorough than the industry average.
