It is announcing higher ambitions, in terms of scope, scale and speed, which focus on net zero and circularity.<\/h2>\n<p>Over the next five years Coats will invest $10m in scaling up the development of green technologies and materials to accelerate the achievement of its goals.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"\/it\/Innovation\/Innovation-Hubs\/\">Coats Innovation Hub<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Asia, in Shenzhen, China, will have a new mission and be re-purposed to focus on the application of biomaterials. Over the long term, Coats aspires to move all products to environmentally friendly materials and chemicals.<\/p>\n<p>Rajiv Sharma, Group Chief Executive, said: \u2018Innovation is key to Coats and our wider industry finding a new and more sustainable way forward. We need to facilitate open-source innovation where different parts of the value chain collaborate to create solutions to the challenges we are all facing. Accelerating our commitments is the right thing to do and will strengthen our business for the future.\u2019<\/p>\n<h3>Coats has identified five key targets:<\/h3>\n<p><strong style=\"font-weight: 550;\">Carbon neutral<\/strong> \u2013 By 2050 Coats will reach net zero through accelerating its progress in energy reduction, shifting to more renewable energy and its materials transition.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-weight: 550;\">Renewable energy<\/strong> \u2013 By 2030 70% of the global energy consumption of Coats will come from renewables.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-weight: 550;\">Materials<\/strong> \u2013 By 2030 all products will be made completely independently of new oil-extraction materials such as polyester and nylon. Coats will lead the industry in replacing all new oil-based materials with eco-products which is one of the most effective ways to reduce the carbon footprint.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-weight: 550;\">Waste<\/strong> \u2013 Coats will shift to a more circular model for its industry. It will create products and packaging solutions that enable recycling and reuse, both within its own operations and across the wider garment industry.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-weight: 550;\">Social<\/strong> \u2013 Coats will continue its commitment to living wage, fair employment practices and efforts to improve standard of living for communities.<\/p>\n<p>Rajiv Sharma added:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"blockquote\"><p><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"60\" height=\"40\" viewbox=\"-5 -5 60 40\" id=\"quote_blue\" x=\"364\" y=\"132\"><path d=\"M12.25 30H0L17.75 0h9.125L12.25 30zm23.125 0h-12.25l17.75-30H50L35.375 30z\" fill=\"#005DA9\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\"\/><\/svg>\u2018We are further integrating sustainability into the core of our business operations and strategy with the aim to generate impact on a scale beyond anything so far achieved in our industry.
