Energy Use & Production
Colored Organics doesn't share information on its energy strategy. Colored Organics sources and manufactures its materials globally, which is standard practice in the textile industry.
Packaging & Distribution
Colored Organics doesn't appear to have made efforts to minimize the amount of material used in its packaging. Colored Organics primarily relies on petro-based plastics for its packaging, of a virgin or unknown source, which greatly increases its emissions and waste footprint.

Colored Organics offers some products across multiple seasons but also releases new items seasonally each year.
Marketing
Commons is still evaluating this brand's marketing emails.
Transparency & Reporting
Colored Organics has a sustainability page with high-level details on its climate strategy, but this page is only listed in the footer of the website. Like many small brands with limited resources, it doesn't publish an annual sustainability report.
Emissions Tracking
Commons couldn't find information on this brand's emissions tracking. This process can be an expensive undertaking for small brands.
Targets & Offsets
Commons couldn't find emissions reduction targets for this brand. Commons couldn't find evidence that this brand offsets any emissions.
Supply Chain & Labor
Colored Organics doesn't publish detailed information about its supply chain partners, beyond noting it works with GOTS certified facilities in India that prohibit child labor.
Colored Organics's Insufficient rating is due to a lack of published sustainability information. It’s a smaller brand, which means it likely has fewer resources for robust sustainability efforts and reporting. When Colored Organics publishes more data, we’ll be able to do a more thorough review.
Colored Organics' products are made with primarily low emission and environmentally friendly materials such as GOTS organic cotton. It uses minimal amounts of harmful synthetic materials which account for a large portion of overall textile emissions.
However, the brand still relies on virgin petro-plastic for its packaging, and has no strategic programs or services to help keep its products out of landfills.
