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 amt. “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:
- It uses some lower-impact materials including organic cotton, however it does not publish an aggregate breakdown of materials used.
- It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
- It produces seasonless collections.
- 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 amt. “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:
- All of its final production stage happens in Spain.
- It partly traces its supply chain including the final and some of the second production stages.
- The brand claims to audit some of its supply chain but doesn’t specify what percentage.
- It provides jobs for workers from local communities and has demonstrated its positive impact.
- 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 amt. “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:
- It appears to use wool.
- A high proportion of its animal-derived materials consist of recycled or certified alternatives to conventional wool.
- It doesn’t appear to use fur, angora, exotic animal skin, leather, shearling, cashmere, alpaca, mohair, or down.
- There’s no evidence it has an animal welfare policy.
