Xocoi

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

• There’s no evidence it uses any lower-impact materials.
• There’s no evidence it minimises solvent-based chemicals, which can be harmful to workers and the environment in production.
• There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.
• It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.

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

• Its final production stage happens in Italy, a medium risk country for labour abuse.
• There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.
• There's no evidence it audits its suppliers.

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 Xocoi “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 Xocoi “It’s a Start” overall.
