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.
Good requirements 2 of 6
- Not met: Pays a living wage, or holds a strong fair-pay certificationLiving wage: no evidence
- Not met: Respects worker rightsMost of its products are made in countries such as China and India, where unions are heavily restricted, and it has no full supply chain audit.

- Met: No child or forced labour findings or links

Evidence
What we found
- Uses timber in only a few products, so the raw-material check doesn't hold it back for Good. It traces or certifies all of its timber.
- FSC or PEFC certified timber: Forest certification that includes core labour rights for forest workers.
- Traces all of its timber to the country of origin or beyond, or buys all of it certified
Research notes Ecosa says its mattresses are assembled in China from foams and latex sourced mainly from Germany (90%), Japan and China, but does not name its factories or say where its bedding and furniture are made. It publishes no supplier list, factory audits or modern slavery statement. FSC-certified wood is used for all bed frames and bedside tables. It is a certified B Corp, but the assessment says little about conditions for the workers who make its products.
