OZETA

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

• It uses few lower-impact materials, and it does not publish an aggregate breakdown of materials used.
• It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
• 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.

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

• Its final production stage happens in Slovakia.
• It audits some of its supply chain including all of the final production stage.
• It provides jobs for workers from local communities and has demonstrated its positive impact.
• 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 OZETA “Not Good Enough”. Unfortunately, OZETA does not publish sufficient information on the most critical animal issues. You have a right to know how the products you buy affect the issues you care about.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate OZETA “It's a Start” overall.
