BRING: A Sustainable Brand Rating
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 BRING “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:
- It uses a medium 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.
- To minimize the industry’s waste, it reuses textile offcuts from other companies.
- It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
People Rating
Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assess brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labor to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate BRING “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:
- Its final production stage happens in Japan, a medium risk country for labor abuse.
- It traces most of its supply chain.
- It’s not clear if it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.
Animals Rating
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 BRING “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:
- There’s no evidence it has an animal welfare policy.
- It appears to use wool.
- It doesn’t appear to use leather, down, fur, angora, exotic animal skin, or exotic animal hair.
Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate BRING “Good” overall.
Overall, BRING has shown significant efforts in being environmentally conscious by using sustainable materials, minimizing waste, and reducing the carbon footprint of its supply chain. However, there are areas for improvement, particularly in ensuring fair labor practices and implementing clear animal welfare policies.
By focusing on these key areas, BRING has the potential to further enhance its sustainability practices and become a leader in the fashion industry for ethical and environmentally friendly practices.
