The Recycled Planet's environment rating is 'it's a start'. It uses a high proportion of eco-friendly materials including recycled materials. There is no evidence it minimises textile waste when manufacturing its products. There is no evidence it is taking specific steps to reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. However its use of eco-friendly materials reduces its climate impact and limits the amount of chemicals, water and wastewater used in production.

Its labour rating is 'not good enough'. There is no evidence it has a Code of Conduct. There is no evidence it ensures payment of a living wage in its supply chain. There is no evidence it audits its suppliers. It traces some of its supply chain.

Its animal rating is 'good'. It does not use leather, fur, exotic animal skin or angora. It uses recycled wool, recycled cashmere and recycled down.

The Recycled Planet is rated 'It's a start' overall.
