Sustainability Summary

What do our labels mean?

The White Company is a UK home and lifestyle retailer founded in 1994, selling home accessories, fragrance, clothing and home furnishing items. The available sustainability information suggests a mixed position: it has been recognised for an animal welfare policy confirming its own-brand cosmetics are cruelty-free, and it has recently taken part in a cotton recycling initiative as part of a broader move towards circularity. It also achieved B Corp certification, which is presented as part of its sustainability credentials. However, other sources note that its sustainability page was insufficient, with poor ratings for environmental reporting and timber sourcing policy.
