AWAN

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 AWAN “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including Tencel Lyocell.
• It uses lower impact materials, but there’s no evidence it’s taking further action to reduce its energy use or greenhouse gas emissions.
• To minimise waste, most of its products are made-to-order.

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

• Its final production stage happens in Portugal, a medium risk country for labour abuse.
• There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
• There's no evidence it audits its suppliers.
• 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 AWAN “Good”. It doesn’t appear to use animal-derived materials but doesn’t claim to be a vegan brand.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate AWAN “Good” overall.
