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 lower-impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its Supply Chain.
  • It uses low-waste cutting techniques to maximise fabric use.
  • It uses renewable energy in its supply chain 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. Here we rate Jeanerica “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
  • It does not disclose where all of its Final Stage of Production occurs.
  • It traces most of its supply chain.
  • 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 “Good”. 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, down, fur, angora, or exotic animal skin.
