How ethical and sustainable is Ariston?
Ariston is included in The Good Shopping Guide‘s Boilers Ethical Ratings Table. Ariston has not yet upheld our ethical standards, but we are hopeful that in the future, the company will reform in order to do business in a more moral manner. Ariston might raise consumer trust by applying for Ethical Accreditation, which would entail a more thorough investigation and recommendations for ethical development.
More information on the importance of ethical boilers may be found in The Good Shopping Guide’s Guide to Ethical Boilers.

Ariston receives low marks for its sustainability report, the report contains evidence of progress being made but does not outline any goals and therefore receives a bottom rating.
In what areas does Ariston score well for its ethics?
Ariston performs well in many areas that The Good Shopping Guide assesses. The brand faces no criticisms for Animal Welfare, Human Rights, Armaments or Political Donations. Ariaton also has no links to any Nuclear or Fossil Fuel issues.
How can Ariston improve its ethical rating?
The Ethical rating of a brand is divided into three categories by The Good Shopping Guide: the Environment, People and Animals. Find out more about how we rate.
Ariston might apply for Ethical Accreditation for more detailed guidance on how to improve. If Ariston released a comprehensive Environmental Report outlining a range of goals to work towards, it may improve its ranking and meet our core ethical benchmark.
