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 House Of Tweed “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It does not use lower-impact materials.
  • It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce or eliminate hazardous chemicals in manufacturing.
  • It has a limited production run to minimise textile waste

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 House Of Tweed “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Its final production stage happens in Scotland.
  • Its products are made in-house by the owner
  • It traces most of 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 House Of Tweed “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • There’s no evidence it has an animal welfare policy.
  • It appears to use wool and exotic animal hair.
  • It doesn’t appear to use leather, angora, exotic animal skin, down, or fur.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate House Of Tweed “It's a Start” overall.
