New Era Cap sustainability score: 18/100

No operational emissions figures disclosed. Career page lists energy efficiency actions (EMS, LED overhauls, heat recovery) but no tonnage or methodology. Post-47 acquisition entity (~$2B revenue) falls outside band-2 exemption threshold. Not on SBTi Dashboard. Good On You rates Planet performance 1/5 for insufficient information.

No supply chain emissions disclosed. Manufacturing across 16 countries with ~80% historically sourced from China; additional production in Vietnam, Bangladesh, Taiwan, Haiti via third-party factories. 2013 product lifecycle analysis referenced but over decade old. No supplier emissions engagement programme identified.

No base year, time-series reporting or third-party verification. Revenue growth to ~$2B post-acquisition without decarbonisation programme implies absolute emissions rising. 2013 lifecycle analysis provides no comparable basis for trend analysis.

No renewable percentage disclosed. No RE100 membership or power purchase agreements found. Career page references LED efficiency and EMS at Buffalo HQ but no renewable sourcing disclosed. Manufacturing grid connection in China, Vietnam, Bangladesh predominantly fossil-fuelled.

No biodiversity policy or nature-risk assessment published. Uses REPREVE recycled polyester (since 2017) and Polylana fibre, displacing virgin synthetics in part of range. Good On You rates Planet 1/5 for insufficient information on environmental impacts.

Engineering cutting process to minimise waste; partnering with Metro Waste for recycled paper products; purchasing green cleaning products. REPREVE and Polylana use in products. Absent: measurable circular targets, take-back programmes, published waste tonnage, or disclosed recycled input share.

No water consumption figures, reduction targets or discharge monitoring published. Career page states intention to reduce water post-2013 LCA but undated with no figures. Polylana fibre supplier claim of 85% less water is not New Era's footprint measure. No supply chain effluent management disclosed.

Not on SBTi Dashboard. No net-zero commitment, base years, percentage reduction targets or timelines identified in any public document from 2022 onwards. Career page makes informal, unquantified statements but these do not constitute measurable targets.

No sustainability or ESG report published since FY2021. No TCFD, GRI, CSRD, SASB or CDP disclosure. No public sustainability team or board governance identified. Supply chain transparency and career pages provide social compliance information only, outside formal accountability structures.

No regulatory actions, greenwashing rulings, significant fines or environmental damage incidents identified. Not in climate lobbying databases. No trade association lobbying controversies found. Good On You rates Planet 'Very Poor' but reflects performance, not active wrongdoing.
