YNGR's environment rating is 'good'. It uses a medium proportion of eco-friendly materials including recycled materials. Its products are made to order to minimise textile waste. There is no evidence it is taking specific steps to reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions.

Its labour rating is 'not good enough'. It does not disclose where all of its final stage of production occurs. There is no evidence it has a Code of Conduct. There is no evidence it investigates and reports on safety incidents. There is no evidence it ensures payment of a living wage in its supply chain. It traces some of its supply chain.
