Mascaró

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 Mascaró “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses few lower-impact materials.
• There’s no evidence it avoids harmful chemicals in the leather tanning process.
• There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.
• There’s no evidence it takes action to minimise its packaging, which is a driver of plastic 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 Mascaró “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It partly traces its supply chain including all of the final production stage.
• There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
• 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 Mascaró “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 leather and silk.
• It doesn’t appear to use wool, down, fur, angora, exotic animal skin, or exotic animal hair.
