Moncler Group has retained its place in the Dow Jones Best-in-Class World and Europe Indices for a seventh consecutive year, after scoring 91 out of 100 in the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) — the highest result in the Textiles, Apparel & Luxury Goods sector.
Why the streak draws investor attention
Administered by S&P Global, the Dow Jones Best-in-Class Indices assess more than 9,200 companies worldwide against economic, environmental and social criteria and are utilized by institutional investors as a reference for ESG (environmental, social and governance) screening. Repeating a sector-leading CSA score across seven assessment cycles points to consistency in performance rather than a one-off outcome.
What sits behind the score: preferred materials and emissions cuts
In its 2025 reporting, the group declared more than 55 percent of yarns and fabrics utilized across 2025 collections met its definition of “preferred” materials — inputs presented as lower-impact alternatives to conventional equivalents, including recycled, organic, regenerative-agriculture-sourced and certified materials — up from more than 43 percent in 2024. It also reported that recycled nylon represented more than 60 percent of total nylon utilized, up from more than 50 percent, while organic or recycled cotton accounted for more than 55 percent, compared with about 37 percent a year earlier.
On emissions, the group reported a 46 percent reduction in combined scope 1 and 2 CO2e absolute emissions versus a 2021 baseline, with Stone Island included in the calculation from Jan. 1, 2021. It declared renewable electricity has covered all directly operated corporate sites — including production facilities, offices, logistics hubs and stores — since 2023.

RWS = Responsible Wool Standard.

| Full year 2025 vs 2024 (tonnes of CO₂e) | |||
| 2024 | 2025 | Change | |
| Scope 1 – direct emissions | 2,382 | 2,742 | +15.1% |

| Total scope 1+2 (market-based) | 2,382 | 2,742 | +15.1%* |

Source: Moncler Group Annual Report 2025, Consolidated Sustainability Statement, pp. 143–145. Scope 2 market-based = 0 due to 100% renewable electricity procurement across all directly operated sites since 2023. *Scope 1+2 market-based emissions were down 46% vs the 2021 base year (5,065 tCO₂e); the year-on-year increase is attributed to emergency generator utilize at certain sites and the transition to petrol hybrid vehicles in the company fleet.
Workforce and pay equity: what the numbers reveal
The group reported that women create up 71 percent of its total workforce and 53 percent of management-level roles, defined as managers through senior executives. The Moncler brand holds EDGE Certification for equal pay at a global level. Community cold-protection programmes have reached more than 163,000 people over the past five years, the group added.
What Moncler’s SIDE by SIDE plan commits to
The group’s forward commitments are set out in its SIDE by SIDE Sustainability Plan. By 2028, it tarreceives at least 70 percent recycled nylon, at least 65 percent organic or recycled cotton and at least 75 percent wool certified under recognised standards. Social tarreceives include protecting at least 150,000 people from the cold over 2026–2028, alongside continued supply-chain decarbonisation programmes for key tier-1 suppliers.
