Science-based emissions target

Chloé has set a science-based target to cut greenhouse gas emissions in both its own operations and its supply chain. A science-based target is a climate goal that follows a method used to keep warming in line with climate science. Good On You says this is a positive step, but it is not clear whether the brand is on track to meet it.

Uses some lower-impact materials

Good On You says Chloé uses some lower-impact materials in its products. This usually means materials that can have a smaller environmental footprint than conventional options, such as recycled or certified inputs. The rating also says the brand still uses only a few of these materials, so this is a limited step rather than a full shift.

Reuses textile offcuts

The brand reuses some of its textile offcuts to reduce waste. Textile offcuts are the leftover pieces of fabric that remain after cutting garments. Reusing them can keep material out of landfill and lower the need for new fabric. Good On You lists this as a waste-reduction action, but only for part of the brand’s work.

Code of Conduct for workers

Chloé has a Code of Conduct that covers the ILO Four Fundamental Freedoms, which are basic labour rights set by the International Labour Organization. Good On You says the brand also has an internal grievance system, so workers in its supply chain can report issues like harassment or unpaid wages anonymously. This is a sign of some worker-protection systems in place.

Some living wage coverage

Good On You says Chloé ensures some workers in the final production stage are paid living wages, meaning pay that should cover basic needs more fully than a minimum wage in many places. However, this does not cover the whole supply chain. The rating also says there is no evidence of financial security support for suppliers or strong diversity and inclusion action across most of the supply chain.

Animal welfare policy

Chloé has a formal animal welfare policy aligned with the Five Freedoms, a common animal welfare framework that aims to protect animals from hunger, pain, fear, and distress. Good On You says the policy does not have clear implementation steps. It also says the brand appears to use leather, wool, and exotic animal hair, while using recycled down and not appearing to use fur or angora.
