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

Last researched 3 November 2026 · 6 sources

Australian brand of electric blankets, heated throws and bedding.

There's no proof Dreamaker pays more than the legal minimum, which in China is below a living wage, and it has no full independent audit.

Why it's graded Lacks transparency

  • Not met: Meets 2 of 6 Good requirements.
  • Holds the grade back: It doesn't show that workers are paid a living wage, and isn't certified as working towards one. On Track needs at least one of these.
  • 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


Good requirements 2 of 6

  • 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

Evidence

What we found

  • Uses cotton in only a few products, so the raw-material check doesn't hold it back for Good. It doesn't show where its cotton comes from. The "Open supply chain" star needs all of it traced, certified or upcycled.

Research notes Dreamaker products are designed in Australia by Décor Innovations, and Kmart and Bunnings listings for its electric blankets and sheet sets say they are made in China. The company does not say where its whole range is made. It publishes no supplier list, modern slavery statement, audit results or wage commitment. Some lines use cotton (quilted cotton electric blankets, cotton sateen sheets), but the only certification shown is OEKO-TEX Standard 100, a chemical safety test that does not trace cotton or cover labour.
