Escama Studio

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 Escama Studio “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including upcycled materials.
• It uses lower-impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its Supply Chain.
• It completes the first and second stages of production closer to home to reduce its climate impact.
• There’s no evidence it takes action to minimise its packaging, which is a driver of plastic waste.

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 Escama Studio “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It traces all of its supply chain.
• It partners with artisans in Brazil to make its products.
• It visits its suppliers regularly.
• It’s not clear if 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 Escama Studio “Good”. It doesn’t appear to use animal-derived materials but doesn’t claim to be a vegan brand.
