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 OAK & ACORN “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:
- It uses a medium proportion of lower-impact materials including organic cotton.
- There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.
- There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce its climate impacts.
- 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. Unfortunately, OAK & ACORN does not publish sufficient information. You have a right to know how the products you buy affect the issues you care about.
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 OAK & ACORN “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 OAK & ACORN “Not Good Enough” overall.
