Kmart Australia Limited Sustainability Actions

Uses some recycled materials

Kmart has used some eco-friendly materials, including recycled materials, in its products. Good On You says this is a positive first step, but it also notes that there is no clear evidence the company has cut greenhouse gas emissions across its supply chain. That means the brand has shown some material changes, but not enough public proof of wider environmental progress.

Set a chemicals deadline

Kmart has set a deadline to eliminate hazardous chemicals by 2025. Hazardous chemicals are substances that can harm people or the environment if they are used or released badly. Good On You says there is no evidence the company is on track to meet this target, so the goal exists but progress is not publicly clear.

Publishes some supplier info

Good On You says Kmart likely publishes some information about supplier policies, audits, remediation processes, and a list of suppliers in the final stage of production. Remediation means fixing problems found in the supply chain. The same source says Kmart also discloses some policies meant to protect suppliers and workers during COVID-19. This suggests some transparency, but not full visibility.

Uses animal welfare policy

Kmart has a formal animal welfare policy aligned with the Five Freedoms, a basic animal care framework that covers things like food, comfort, and freedom from pain. Good On You says the brand does not use fur, angora, or exotic animal skin, but it does use wool, leather, and some exotic animal hair. It also says Kmart does not trace animal products even to the first stage of production.

Moved most products online

An Informatica customer story says Kmart moved 98% of its product range online, covering more than 45,000 stock keeping units, or SKUs (individual product items). This was presented as a product data and digital operations change, not a direct environmental claim. Still, it shows the company has made a large operational shift in how it manages and sells products.
