Our ratings are based on a scale from 1 (We avoid) to 5 (Great) How we rate


Silou's environment rating is 'great'. It uses a high proportion of eco-friendly materials including recycled materials. It has a limited production run to minimise textile waste. Its use of eco-friendly materials limits the amount of chemicals, water and wastewater used in production.

Its labour rating is 'it's a start'. Its final stage of production is undertaken in Europe, a low/medium risk region for labour abuse. There is no evidence it has a Code of Conduct but it has a formal statement covering workers rights. There is no evidence it ensures payment of a living wage. It traces some of its supply chain including all of the final stage of production. It visits its suppliers but does not state how often.

This brand makes products that are generally free of animal materials so it is not applicable to rate its impact on animals. We calculate the overall rating from environment and labour scores only.

Silou is rated 'Good' overall.
