Livera

Livera is owned by Groupe Chantelle.

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 Livera “It's a Start”. 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.
• It offers clothing recycling to consumers to help address end-of-life textile waste.
• Its packaging is recyclable.
• It’s set a science based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in both its direct operations and supply chain but there’s no evidence it is on track.
• There’s no evidence it’s set a target to manage water use in its supply chain.

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

• It partly traces its supply chain, including the final and some of the second production stages.
• There’s no evidence it provides financial security to its suppliers, which can result in poor working conditions and wages.
• It claims it has a Code of Conduct, but does not publicly disclose it.
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.
• During the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, it did not disclose adequate policies or safeguards to protect workers in its supply chain from the virus.

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

• It appears to use wool.
• It doesn’t appear to use leather, shearling, cashmere, alpaca, mohair, down, angora, fur, exotic animal hair, or exotic animal skin.

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