STUDIO PIA

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

• It uses some lower-impact materials including recycled materials.
• There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.
• Its packaging is recyclable.
• It uses low-waste cutting techniques to maximise fabric 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 STUDIO PIA “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It sources its Final Stage of Production from countries with high risk of labour abuse.
• There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct but it has a formal statement covering workers' rights.
• It claims it ensures payment of a Living Wage in its Supply Chain but doesn't define a living wage.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Since STUDIO PIA makes products that are generally free of animal-derived materials, we’ve not rated its impact on animals. Its overall rating is based on its combined environment and labour scores.

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