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 Harwell Godfrey “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • There’s no evidence it uses any lower-impact materials.
  • To minimise waste, its products are made-to-order.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.
  • It manufactures its products by hand to reduce its climate impact.

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. Unfortunately, Harwell Godfrey does not publish sufficient information. You have a right to know how the products you buy affect the issues you care about.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Since Harwell Godfrey makes products that are generally free of animal-derived materials, we’ve not rated its impact on animals. Its overall rating is based on its combined environment and labour scores.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Harwell Godfrey “Not Good Enough” overall.
