Facettes Studio

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 Facettes Studio “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials, and it publishes an aggregate breakdown of materials used.
• It uses lower-impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its supply chain.
• To minimise waste, it limits its production runs.
• It completes the first and second stages of production closer to home to reduce its climate impact.
• It avoids plastic 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 Facettes Studio “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• All of its final production stage happens in France.
• It traces most of its supply chain.
• The brand claims to audit some of its supply chain but doesn’t specify what percentage.
• 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 Facettes Studio “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It appears to use wool.
• A high proportion of its animal-derived materials consist of recycled or certified alternatives to conventional wool.
• It doesn’t appear to use leather, shearling, cashmere, alpaca, mohair, or down.

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