MiiK

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 MiiK “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses a medium proportion of lower-impact materials including Lenzing Modal.
• To minimise waste, it limits its production runs.
• It recycles water to reduce water use in its supply chain.
• 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 MiiK “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• Its final production stage happens in Canada, a low risk country for labour abuse.
• It partly traces its supply chain including all of the final and second production stages.
• There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct but it has a formal statement covering workers rights.
• It’s not clear if 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 MiiK “Good”. It doesn’t appear to use animal-derived materials but doesn’t claim to be a vegan brand.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate MiiK “Good” overall.
