How sustainable is Toad&Co?

This scree­ning has been done by Fairify 

Toad & Co is a Cali­for­nia-based fashion brand for men and women. As a mem­ber of 1% for the pla­netm, the brand is trans­pa­rent about mate­rial use and main­ly uses sus­tai­nable mate­rials, such as 100% orga­nic cot­ton, ten­cel, hemp and recy­cled fibers. But not all of its mate­rials are sus­tai­nable. The company’s goal is to convert all syn­the­tics to 100% recy­cled by 2025 and cer­ti­fy all wool via the Res­pon­sible Wool Stan­dard by 2024. The wool has alrea­dy been appro­ved by Oeko-Tex and Toad & Co com­mu­ni­cates that it’s non-mulesed. 

The Cali­for­nian brand offers cus­to­mers a sus­tai­nable ship­ping method and uses recy­cled and recy­clable mate­rials in all of its packa­ging. On top of that, Toad & Co have a nice gua­ran­tee poli­cy: If you don’t get a com­pli­ment after wea­ring it three times, or if you find some­thing wrong, the com­pa­ny will take the garment back and make it right. There’s a Code of Conduct in place, but it’s unclear to which extent it is upheld throu­ghout the sup­ply chain and where the fac­to­ries are loca­ted. Obvious­ly, the inten­tion to do the right thing is there, but a lit­tle more trans­pa­ren­cy is nee­ded before we can recom­mend Toad & Co as a sus­tai­nable alternative.
