In what areas does FatFace perform well? 

FatFace performs well in our criteria for its Environmental Report. The fashion brand publishes its Sustainable Product information on its website; goals to achieve by 2025 include: all of the polyesters will be made from recycled materials, all viscose goods will come from environmentally friendly sources, the Leather Working Group (LWG) tanneries will supply all leather. In FatFace’s Impact Report, the company also provides some evidence of goals met so far, such as lowering its carbon emissions.

For those consumers passionate about Animal Welfare, FatFace also scores well for its policy on animal rights and animal cruelty. FatFace does not use feathers, down, animal fur, mohair, or angora and to be sure that there’s no animal testing on its cosmetics, this fashion retailer uses the Leaping Bunny Standard.

The FatFace Foundation has also given more than £1 million to charities since 2009. Additionally, FatFace has promised to donate the equivalent of 1% of its annual income to a sustainable fundraising stream. Publishing these details allows consumers and consumer groups to hold brands to account.
