Our ratings are based on a scale from 1 (We avoid) to 5 (Great)


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 Flare Street “Great�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses some lower-impact materials including upcycled materials.
  • To minimise waste, it reuses some of its textile offcuts.
  • It produces long-lasting products.
  • To reduce its climate impacts, it uses renewable energy in its supply chain.
  • Digital printing technology helps reduce its water use.

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 Flare Street “Good�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Its final production stage happens in Australia, a low risk country for labour abuse.
  • It partly traces its supply chain including the final and some of the second production stages.
  • There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct but it has a formal statement covering workers rights.
  • It audits some of its supply chain including all of the final production stage.
  • 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 Flare Street “Great�. It states that its entire product range is vegan.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Flare Street “Great� overall.
