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 BLEUSALT “It's a Start”. 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.
  • There’s no evidence it minimises textile waste in its supply chain.
  • It uses recycled packaging.

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

  • Its final production stage happens in the USA, 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 BLEUSALT “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

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

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate BLEUSALT “It's a Start” overall.
