Bloomingville

Lacks transparency

Lacks transparency. Publishes some details, but doesn't show its workers are paid and treated fairly.

Based on what Bloomingville publishes, with few independent checks. It doesn't say where its products are made, so we use where its industry usually makes them. Researched with AI assistance against published rules. Last researched 3 November 2026 · 7 sources · How we check

Danish interiors company selling furniture, ceramics and textiles.

We couldn't confirm where Bloomingville makes most of its Scandinavian furniture and home decor.

Also worth knowing

Most homewares and appliances are made in countries such as China and Vietnam, where pay is usually below a living wage.

Better-graded furniture

Why it's graded Lacks transparency

Meets 1 of 6 Good requirements, with 2 red flags.Open why it has this gradeClose why it has this grade
  • Not met: Meets 1 of 6 Good requirements.
  • Holds the grade back: It has 2 red flags: no evidence of a living wage and a hidden, unaudited supply chain, probably in high-risk countries. Two or more red flags means a poor grade.
  • It isn't Harm on record, because there's no serious confirmed problem on its record.
  • Lacks transparency is still a poor grade: in supply chains like this, workers who can't be seen to be treated fairly are usually underpaid or unprotected.

How grades are decided

  • Not met: Pays a living wage, or holds a strong fair-pay certificationLiving wage: no evidence

  • Not met: Supply chain independently audited or certified, or at least 80% made in countries with strong labour standards
  • Met: No child or forced labour findings or links
  • Not met: Names the factories or farms that make its products, or is fully certified by a scheme that holds and audits that list
  • Not met: High-risk raw materials (cotton and timber) traced or certified, or not a major part of its rangeNot traced or certified: timber

Evidence

What we found

  • Doesn't show where its timber comes from. Timber is linked to illegal logging linked to forced labour, so it can't be graded Good until it traces or certifies it.
  • Uses cotton in only a few products and doesn't show where it comes from. That doesn't count against it for Good, but the "Open supply chain" star needs all of it traced, certified or upcycled.

Research notes Bloomingville has its products made by suppliers in Asia through its own sourcing offices there, but it does not say which countries or name any factories. It is a member of amfori and Ethical Trade Denmark and has a supplier code of conduct, but publishes no audit results or wage commitment. It holds an FSC chain-of-custody certificate without saying what share of its wooden furniture and decor is certified. No labour abuse reports involving the brand were found.
