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

  • It uses some lower-impact materials, however it does not publish an aggregate breakdown of materials used.
  • Its use of lower-impact materials minimises chemicals, water, and wastewater in production.
  • It takes meaningful action to reduce emissions from transportation and distribution.
  • It uses low-waste cutting techniques to maximise fabric use.

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 Jeanerica “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Some of its final stage is located in low risk countries or certified facilities, however it does not publish an aggregate breakdown of suppliers.
  • There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
  • There’s no evidence it audits its suppliers.
  • 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 Jeanerica “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • There’s no evidence it has an animal welfare policy.
  • It appears to use wool.
  • It doesn’t appear to use leather, shearling, cashmere, alpaca, mohair, or down.
  • It uses few animal-derived materials.

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