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 RIXO “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses some lower-impact materials including organic cotton.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce its climate impacts.
  • To minimise waste, it limits its production runs.
  • It uses recycled 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 RIXO “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It sources its final stage of production from countries with extreme risk of labour abuse.
  • 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.
  • It traces 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 RIXO “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • There’s no evidence it has an animal welfare policy.
  • It appears to use leather, exotic animal hair, and wool.
  • It doesn’t appear to use angora, down, exotic animal skin, or fur.

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