Derbe

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 Derbe “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including organic cotton.
• Its use of lower-impact materials minimises chemicals, water, and wastewater in production.
• It uses lower impact materials, but there’s no evidence it’s taking further action to reduce its energy use or greenhouse gas emissions.
• It produces long-lasting products.
• There’s no evidence it minimises textile waste 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 Derbe “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It traces most of its supply chain.
• Its Code of Conduct covers ILO Four Fundamental Freedoms principles.
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.
• There's no evidence it audits its suppliers.

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 Derbe “Great”. PETA listed the brand as vegan.

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