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

  • It uses few lower-impact materials.
  • There’s no evidence it minimises textile waste in its supply chain.
  • There’s no evidence it takes action to minimise its packaging, which is a driver of plastic waste.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water 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 Kujten “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Most of its final production stage happens in China, an extreme risk country for labour abuse.
  • There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
  • 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 Kujten “Good”. 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 leather, exotic animal hair, and silk.
  • It doesn’t appear to use wool, down, fur, angora, or exotic animal skin.

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