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 Rapanui “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials.
  • It uses lower-impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its supply chain.
  • Every step of the life cycle for all of its products has circular principles fully embedded including for design, materials, production techniques, and end of life.
  • To reduce its climate impacts, it uses renewable energy in its supply chain.
  • It uses a closed-loop system to reduce water use in its supply chain.
  • It avoids plastic packaging.

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

  • It traces most of its supply chain.
  • Some of its second stage is located in low-risk countries or certified facilities, however it does not publish an aggregate breakdown of suppliers.
  • There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
  • It claims to have a program to improve wages but there’s no evidence it ensures its workers are paid living wages in most of 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 Rapanui “Great”. It states that its entire product range is vegan.

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