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 TuiKauri “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses some lower-impact materials including organic cotton.
  • It uses low-impact dyes in all of its products.
  • It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
  • 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 TuiKauri “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Its final production stage happens in Japan, 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 TuiKauri “Good”.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate TuiKauri “Good” overall.
