Fashion & Apparel
An apparel company partnered with Lumeva's leadership team to quantify supply chain emissions across four tiers, integrate primary supplier data, and identify opportunities for impact reduction. The project built a robust baseline and provided actionable insights to improve both sustainability performance and business efficiency.
Key Results
- Conducted a comprehensive Tier 1-4 emissions study, from raw material production (Tier 4 - cotton farms) through textile processing (Tier 3), fabric manufacturing (Tier 2), and final assembly/logistics (Tier 1).
- Integrated primary data from Tier 1 suppliers and selected Tier 2 sites, improving precision and credibility.
- Identified major hotspots in cotton farming, dyeing/finishing, and transport logistics.
- Delivered product-level carbon footprints across apparel lines, enabling comparison and tracking.
- Highlighted reduction opportunities: regenerative farming, lower-impact dyes, energy-efficient manufacturing, and supply chain optimization.
- Identified co-benefits: interventions delivered both climate and nature gains (e.g., regenerative cotton improved soil health, biodiversity, and cut emissions).
- Developed a Scope 3 reduction roadmap with milestones, positioning the company as a sustainability leader in Australia.
