Our ratings are based on a scale from 1 (We avoid) to 5 (Great) How we rate


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 Sheep Inc “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • There’s no evidence it uses any lower-impact materials.
  • It uses renewable energy in its supply chain to reduce its climate impact.
  • It uses low-waste cutting techniques to maximise fabric use.
  • It produces long-lasting products.
  • It uses biodegradable 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 Sheep Inc “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Its final production stage happens in medium risk countries for labour abuse, however it doesn't publish an aggregate breakdown of supplier locations.
  • It traces all of its supply chain.
  • There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
  • It visits its suppliers but does not state how often.
  • 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 Sheep Inc “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It appears to use wool.
  • A high proportion of its animal-derived materials consist of recycled or certified alternatives to conventional wool.
  • It doesn’t appear to use fur, angora, leather, shearling, cashmere, alpaca, mohair, or down.
