In the last years, in view of the potential negative impacts of inef- ficient, unethical waste management, the Group has implemented ad hoc procedures and processes for the management of textile materials, be they inventories, fabric scraps or unsold garments. In addition, it constantly dialogues with partners and organisations to explore innovative solutions.
Also in 2022, no unsold garments were sent to incineration with energy recovery or to landfill; rather, they were recycled to re- cover fabric, yarn or other materials. See also page 164.
In addition, in 2022 100% of the nylon production scraps from the Group s direct sites was recycled. See also pages 75; 164.
For more details about the disposal method, broken down by waste type, see also page 240.
Lastly, the Group is a member of RE.CREA, the consortium founded by industry brands, coordinated by Camera Nazionale del- la Moda Italiana, to manage textile and fashion products at the end of their lives and to promote the research and development of inno- vative recycling solutions.

The analysis of raw materials and their supply chain laid the foun- dations of a process aimed at safeguarding biodiversity, outlining a range of activities for more responsible use of natural resourc- es and for reducing the impact of the supply chain on ecosystems.
In fact, over the last two years the Group, with the active in- volvement of its suppliers, carried out a hotspot analysis to identify the main areas of supply of its strategic raw materials, quantifying, for each of them, the impact in terms of land use, climate change, water stress, land and marine pollution. The approach, developed on the basis of the guidelines of the Science Based Targets for Na- ture (SBTN) and the AR3T (Avoid, Reduce, Restore and Regenerate, and Transform) framework, enabled the identification of the impacts generated by the Group, and the prioritisation of mitigation actions.
The analysis showed that the greatest biodiversity impacts are associated with animal fibres, mainly wool and cashmere, relat- ed to the use of soil during grazing. It also emerged the presence of some areas at risk of water stress along the down and cotton sup- ply chain.
On the basis of this analysis, the first projects, consistent with the AR3T framework, were defined, both at the Group s activi- ties and along the supply chain, aimed at minimising the impact on biodiversity by 2030.
The strategy will be managed as an ongoing process to be aligned with developments in the guidelines set out by the SBTN framework.
In 2022 projects were identified to support regenerative practices related to the cotton and wool supply chain, with miti- gation effects on both biodiversity impacts and carbon emissions. These projects will be developed during 2023.
THE GROUP S APPROACH TO BIODIVERSITY
SAFEGUARD BIODIVERSITY
Restore and Regenerate Increase the use of raw materials from practices that offer opportunities to mitigate both biodiversity impacts and carbon emissions (e.g. organic and regenerative farming practices).
Reduce 100% of key raw materials in line with the Raw Materials Manual by 2024, also considering requirements aimed to reduce impacts on biodiversity.
Over 50% of yarns and fabrics will be from lower-impact materials by 2025, also consider- ing reducing the use of virgin raw materials and promoting good land management prac- tices for natural materials.
Continue using 100% recycled wood in logistic processes.
Avoid Key raw materials traced by 2023, including with the aim to identify potential high-risk bio- diversity areas.
Continue promoting sustainable forestry by sourcing 100% wood-pulp based packaging material (paper and cardboard) from deforestation-free supply chains certified under the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and/or Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) certified materials.
Transform Continue participating in the Fashion Pact working groups and roundtables designed to address topics related to climate change, biodiversity and oceans.
23 Refers to the offices and logistics hubs in Italy and the production site in Romania. It does not include waste directly managed by local munici- palities.
24 In 2020 Moncler disposed, by way of exception, shelves and industrial shelves at the logistics hub in Castel San Giovanni (Piacenza).
25 Includes the disposal of a chemical solution used to recover a metal tank that previously held diesel to heat the production site in Romania.
26 Includes spray cans, surgical/FFP2 masks. 27 Includes condensation water from air compressors.
