Girlfriend Collective's environment rating is 'good'. It uses a medium proportion of eco-friendly materials including recycled materials. It reuses some of its offcuts to minimise textile waste. It ensures wastewater in its supply chain is treated and discharged properly. There is no evidence it is taking specific steps to reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. However its use of eco-friendly materials reduces its climate impact and limits the amount of chemicals, water and wastewater used in production.

Its labour rating is 'good'. Its facilities are fully certified by Social Accountability International - SA8000. It has a Code of Conduct that covers all of the ILO Four Fundamental Freedoms principles. It ensures payment of a living wage in some of its supply chain. It traces most of its supply chain.

This brand makes products that are generally free of animal materials so it is not applicable to rate its impact on animals. We calculate the overall rating from environment and labour scores only.

Girlfriend Collective is rated 'Good' overall.
