Our “Planet� rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions and Wastewater to business models and product circularity. Here we rate Classic Cotton Co “Good�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including upcycled materials.
  • It uses lower-impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its Supply Chain.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.
  • There’s no evidence it takes action to minimise its packaging, which is a driver of plastic waste.

Workers� rights are central to our “People� rating, which assess brands� policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Classic Cotton Co “Great�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Its products are made in-house by the owner.
  • It traces all of its supply chain.
