Gung Ho Design

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 Gung Ho Design “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including organic cotton.
• It uses low impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its supply chain.
• To minimise waste, it limits its production runs.
• It uses 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 Gung Ho Design “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• Part of its final production stage is monitored by the Fair Wear Foundation.
• There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct but it has a formal statement covering workers' rights.
• 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 Gung Ho Design “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It’s published a general statement about minimising animal suffering but not a formal animal welfare policy.
• It appears to use wool, exotic animal hair, and silk.
• It doesn’t appear to use leather, down, fur, angora, or exotic animal skin.

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