Our verdict

Dior operates under LVMH's sustainability umbrella with partial emissions disclosure and regressing Scope 3 transparency. Leather supply chains link to Amazon deforestation; water stress unaddressed at brand level. Regulatory actions in Italy expose labour exploitation in contracted manufacturing and misleading sustainability claims.

Christian Dior scores 35/100 (Below expectations) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Scores are free. Companies can never pay for anything about their own score. Last verified May 2026.

That places Christian Dior joint 540th of 934 companies scored, and joint 31st of 45 in FMCG / Consumer Goods.
