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 Dora Larsen “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses a medium proportion of lower-impact materials including recycled materials.
  • It produces long-lasting products.
  • To minimise waste, it limits its production runs.
  • It uses Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified 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 Dora Larsen “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • More than half its final production stage is certified by Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit - SMETA Best Practice Guidance.
  • It audits some of its supply chain including all of the final production stage.
  • It partly traces its supply chain including the final and some of the second production stages.
  • 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. Since Dora Larsen makes products that are generally free of animal-derived materials, we have not rated its impact on animals. Its overall rating is based on its combined "Planet" and "People" scores.

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