🚚 Sustainble tip: check if the shop's warehouse is not too far off, so that the shipping's footprint won't get too high.
How do we rank these shops & brands on sustainability?
So far, we chose to mark shops as sustainable that are certified B Corporations. We are always open for using and combining new standards.
"Certified B Corporations are businesses that meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose."
It is difficult to rank a complete brand or company on its sustainable characteristics. That is why we emphasize that the greenest stuff is the stuff you do not buy. If you still need something it might be worth checking out companies that are ranked as a B Corporation. Want to be more thorough? Check if a company has a sustainability & social report that makes sense. Check if they report on social & environmental characteristics, equality, well-being and more.
We intend to extend this list with other standards as well. If you have any suggestions, let us know.
