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 Flamingos' Life “It's a Start�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses a medium proportion of lower-impact materials including recycled materials.
  • There’s no evidence it minimises solvent-based chemicals, which can be harmful to workers and the environment in production.
  • It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
  • It uses recycled packaging.

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 Flamingos' Life “Not Good Enough�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Its final production stage happens in Spain and Portugal, medium risk countries for labour abuse.
  • There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
  • It traces most of its supply chain.
  • There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.

Brands� animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals� rating. Here we rate Flamingos' Life “Great�. It states that its entire product range is vegan.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Flamingos' Life “Good� overall.
