- This is an unclaimed profile. Mavi has not joined Sustainability Tracker to verify their sustainability credentials. We gathered what we could from public sources.
Mavi presents itself as a denim-led fashion brand that is trying to reduce its environmental impact while also improving how it manages workers and supply chains. Its sustainability pages mention climate reporting, renewable energy use, water and chemical management, and more traceable sourcing. Independent sources give a mixed picture: Good On You rates the brand “Good” overall, but says its worker score is weak, while Trustpilot reviews are poor. Mavi has also published sustainability reports and joined several industry initiatives, but some claims are still broad and not fully easy to verify from public data. Positive Sentiment Found Positive third-party signals are limited but real. Good On You rates Mavi “Good” overall, with a 4/5 Planet score, saying it uses some lower-impact materials, has set a science-based target to cut greenhouse gas emissions in its own operations and supply chain, and has water-reduction work in parts of its supply chain. The same source notes some supply-chain certification, including BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative, a code of conduct for social standards) and SMETA (Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit, a supplier audit method). The Robin Report also described Mavi’s All Blue line as a multi-faceted sustainability effort and said sustainable products made up about 10% of revenue in 2021, while noting a 2030 goal for fully sustainable denim and better supply-chain traceability. Common Criticisms: The main negative signal comes from consumer reviews and from Good On You’s worker assessment. Trustpilot shows weak customer sentiment for Mavi, with a 1.8 out of 5 score on mavi.com from 19 reviews and a 2 out of 5 score on mavi.net.au from 19 reviews. Those ratings suggest repeated dissatisfaction, although the snippets do not break down the exact complaints. Good On You also says Mavi is “Not Good Enough” on people, meaning it found too little evidence that the brand pays living wages or gives strong worker protections across its supply chain. It also says Mavi did not disclose enough safeguards for supply-chain workers during COVID-19. That points to gaps in transparency, not proven misconduct, but it still weakens trust in the brand’s ESG claims.

Mavi Sustainability Actions
Mavi Sustainability Commitments
2025
Audit critical suppliers
Mavi says it plans to carry out environmental audits at all critical suppliers and wet process sub-manufacturers by 2025. Wet process work includes steps like washing and finishing denim, which can use a lot of water and chemicals. The goal is to check environmental performance more closely in the parts of the supply chain that can have the biggest impact.
2025
Cut hazardous chemicals
Mavi says it aims to make all strategic suppliers and wet process sub-manufacturers comply with the ZDHC MRSL by 2025. ZDHC stands for Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals, and MRSL means Manufacturing Restricted Substances List. In simple terms, this is a rulebook that limits harmful chemicals used in production.
2030
Make denim fully sustainable
Mavi’s CEO said the company aims for its entire denim collection to be made of sustainable All Blue products by 2030. The All Blue line includes materials such as organic cotton, recycled content, Better Cotton, and upcycled inputs. This is a product-level target that would affect a large share of the brand’s core business.
