How sustainable is Roxy?
This screening has been done by Fairify on July 25th 2020
Roxy is a women’s surf, swimwear and sports apparel brand that was founded as a women’s line by Quicksilver. The company is still a sister company of Quicksilver, which are both owned by the American mother company Boardriders Inc..
Unfortunately, none of the Boardriders brands offer any relevant information about their operations. When a brand doesn’t offer any information, there are several risks you take as a consumer. For example, the climate impact of that particular brand or product can be much higher compared to its industry peers. The company might use certain harmful chemicals or there might be animals or humans harmed for the manufacturing of its products. For these reasons, we believe that you should be aware of how products are produced and how a company as a whole operates in regard to our pillars. When there’s no transparency, you are at risk of supporting some or more of the previously mentioned harmful conditions.
