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 Neu Nomads “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including Tencel Modal.
  • It uses low impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its supply chain.
  • To reduce its climate impacts, it uses renewable energy in its supply chain.
  • It uses recycled packaging.
  • There’s no evidence it minimises textile waste in its supply chain.

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 Neu Nomads “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It sources its final stage of production from countries with extreme risk of labour abuse.
  • It partly traces its supply chain including the final and some of the second production stages.
  • It audits some of its supply chain including most of the final and second stages of production.
  • 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 Neu Nomads “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It appears to use exotic animal hair.
  • It doesn’t appear to use leather, wool, down, fur, angora, or exotic animal skin.
