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


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

  • It uses some lower-impact materials including recycled materials.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce its climate impacts.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce or eliminate hazardous chemicals in manufacturing.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assesses brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate tayu “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It doesn't disclose where all of its final production stage occurs.
  • Its second production stage happens in Japan, a medium risk country for labour abuse.
  • It traces some of its supply chain.
  • There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
  • 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 tayu “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

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