Didriksons

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

• It uses some lower-impact materials including recycled materials.
• To minimise waste, it reuses some of its textile offcuts.
• There’s no evidence it’s taking any action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in its manufacturing.
• It uses some 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 Didriksons “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It sources its final stage of production from countries with extreme risk of labour abuse.
• It claims it has a Code of Conduct but does not publicly disclose it.
• It partly traces its supply chain including all of the final production stage.
• 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 Didriksons “Great”. It states that its entire product range is vegan.

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