Brownie

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

• It uses some lower-impact materials, and it publishes an aggregate breakdown of materials used.
• There's no evidence it minimises textile waste when manufacturing its products.
• It uses renewable energy in its direct operations (such as stores or offices) but not in its supply chain.
• There’s no evidence it’s set a target to manage water use 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 Brownie “Not Good Enough”. Unfortunately, Brownie does not publish sufficient information on the most critical labour issues. You have a right to know how the products you buy affect the issues you care about.

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 Brownie “Not Good Enough”. Unfortunately, Brownie does not publish sufficient information on the most critical animal issues. You have a right to know how the products you buy affect the issues you care about.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Brownie “Not Good Enough” overall.
