Wolven

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 Wolven “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including recycled materials.
• It uses low impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its supply chain.
• It opts for sea freight shipping over air freight to reduce its climate impacts.
• It uses recycled packaging.

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 Wolven “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• Its final production stage is certified by Workplace Condition Assessment (WCA).
• It claims it has a Code of Conduct but does not publicly disclose it.
• It partly traces its supply chain.
• It sources its final stage of production from countries with extreme risk of labour abuse.
• 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 Wolven “Good”. It doesn’t appear to use animal-derived materials but doesn’t claim to be a vegan brand.

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