Areas For Development:
There’s a great deal of positive information on Shaku’s website, however, the focus is on sustainability and key areas of information around ethical practices and supplier transparency are still missing. We recommend the following:
- A clear Ethics page with supporting evidence on the key criteria used to assess working conditions and fair labour for workers. There is also no mention of animal welfare in the production of natural materials.
- Supplier transparency is too vague – we suggest more detail into who the suppliers are and evidence of suppliers’ audits and code of conduct agreements.
