Aquafil sustainability path – Grounded on vision and business model

• Journey to circularity started with a deep business model review to prepare Group to next decades evolution based on cultural sensitiveness to environmental topics and Group R&D and technological strengths
• Aquafil correctly identified future trends which gradually became "secular" change drivers
  • Increasing volatility related to crucial raw materials both in term of availability and prices
  • Production process wastes management
  • Growing attention versus an "environmental" frame in the value chain and among stakeholders
    • o Clients sharing the same vision
    • o Many different regulators increasing focus to environmental laws all across Group presence countries
    • o First steps versus Extended Production Responsibility ("EPR")
    • o Civil society growing sensitiveness
• Eco-Design is next crucial step
  • from the "raw material–product–waste" linear model to the "closing the loop" paradigm
    • o products build with raw materials which will become raw materials by themselves

Aquafil sustainability path – A journey started in 1990

Aquafil sustainability path – The ECO PLEDGE®

The ECO PLEDGE® – SDGs and GRI alignment

The ECO PLEDGE® – Re-thinking products

• Eco-Design aim is to create products which "will come back" because are conceived and built to become future resources and not wastes
• Collaboration on the entire value chain is the crucial successful driver

TARKETT Closing the loop in BCF

The collaboration allowed the development of an innovative technology which separates carpet tiles at the end of life into two main components, maintaining over 95% purity of the yarn. This level of purity ensures that the PA6 yarn can be recycled and transformed into new ECONYL® regenerated nylon

NAPAPIJRI Closing the loop in NTF

Creation of a completely circular product: the "Skidoo Infinity" jacket is "mono material" done with ECONYL® yarn and standard nylon and therefore designed to be completely recycled. Thanks to a take back program, it can be returned after two years of use and recycled into new ECONYL® yarn

CORAL EYEWEAR Closing the loop in Polymers

"Endangered collection": glasses and sunglasses made with ECONYL® and completed with frame recycling scheme (2 year-guarantee, after this period frames can be returned for recycling)

The ECO PLEDGE® – Protecting the enviroment

• Aquafil is committed to respect the environment in every phase of its own production process
• Therefore, activities and to reduce impacts and recover energy are constant among years

• E.g. installation of new heating systems with heat recovery, or sharing excess thermal energy with structures close to the factories and choosing energy from renewable sources
• From this point of view, below the most relevant Group KPI
  • 2020 data are influenced by volume drop determined by COVID pandemic
