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


ColieCo's environment rating is 'great'. It uses a high proportion of eco-friendly materials including deadstock materials. It manufactures locally to reduce its carbon footprint. It uses low-waste cutting techniques to minimise textile waste. Its use of eco-friendly materials limits the amount of chemicals, water and wastewater used in production.

Its labour rating is 'good'. Its final stage of production is undertaken in Portugal, a medium risk country for labour abuse. There is no evidence it has a Code of Conduct but it has a formal statement covering workers rights. It is unclear whether it ensures payment of a living wage in its supply chain.

This brand makes products that are generally free of animal materials other than pearls. We have not rated its impact on animals. The overall rating is based on environment and labour scores only.

ColieCo is rated 'Good' overall.
