Eliminate PFC-based finishes from our supply chain by 2023, in line with our work toward zero discharge of hazardous chemicals in our supply chain
|
2023 |
Achieved
|
100% of fabrics with PFC-based finishes were successfully converted or exited. At the Gap Inc. level, 95% of apparel and accessories
units with water repellent or stain resistant performance were produced without PFCs (up from 38% in 2021, and 7% in 2020). About 1%
of apparel and accessories units at the Gap Inc. level had a water repellent or stain resistant finish, down from 1.5% in 2021
(PFC-based finishes (which we define as those based on PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are no longer being used intentionally in production. Most products available for purchase as of January 1, 2023 are produced without PFC-based finishes, but due to transportation and store inventory timelines and strategies, some styles available for purchase will still have a PFC-based finish.)
