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

  • It uses few lower-impact materials.
  • To minimise waste, its products are made-to-order.
  • It uses some recycled packaging.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.

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

  • It sources its final stage of production from countries with high risk of labour abuse.
  • It partly traces its supply chain including all of the final production stage.
  • There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct but it has a formal statement covering workers' rights.
  • 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 SeamsFriendly “Great”. It states that its entire product range is vegan.

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