Tropic

Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions to wastewater, ingredients' impacts, product circularity, and more. Here we rate Tropic “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses some lower-impact ingredients including certified organic ingredients.
• To reduce its climate impacts, it uses renewable energy in some of its supply chain.
• It uses recycled packaging.
• It could be using palm oil, but it has not disclosed any information regarding responsible sourcing that mitigates environmental impacts.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assesses brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Tropic “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• Much of its final production stage happens in the United Kingdom.
• There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
• It audits some of its supply chain including all of the final production stage.
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.

Note that the "People" rating in Good On You’s methodology is defined by labour rights and does not consider consumer health.

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 Tropic “Great”. 

• PETA listed the brand as vegan.
• It's certified by Cruelty Free International's Leaping Bunny Programme.

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