Ettitude
Partly verifiedEttitude isn't doing enough to protect workers: there's no proof workers earn a living wage, and unions and workers' rights are heavily restricted in China. It does have some safeguards, as its factories are socially audited.

Not doing enough. Workers in the supply chain are likely underpaid, unprotected or in danger, and in the worst cases face forced or child labour. Look for a better-graded alternative. What this grade means
Good: 1 of 5
- Pays a living wage
- Respects worker rights
- Full supply chain audit, or made only in countries with rigorous labour standards
- No child or forced labour findings
- Publishes where its products are made (supplier list, named farms or its own factories)
Great: 0 of 3
- Pays beyond a living wage
- Finds and fixes problems, or invests directly in workers' communities
- Actively empowers workers
Needs all Good requirements plus two of these.
Red flags: 1
- Hidden or unaudited supply chain (no certification or documentation, or major production in countries with poor worker rights without independent audits)
Where it's made
| Country | Worker rights | Legal wages | Forced labour risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| China 80% | Systematic violations | Below a living wage | Moderate |
| Peru 20% | Regular violations | Well below a living wage | Low |
Country conditions from the ITUC Global Rights Index, Global Slavery Index and living wage benchmarks. Certifications and audits can raise a company above its countries' baseline.
Why this grade
- Timber, cotton textiles and ceramics carry moderate raw-material risk; illegal logging is linked to forced labour in some regions.
- Certified B Corp: Whole-company assessment. Labour is one part of the score, so it is supportive rather than proof.
- amfori BSCI / SMETA audited: Commercial social audits; useful but easily gamed and rarely check wages properly.
Most ettitude bedding is made in China, close to where its bamboo is grown, and the Luxe Sateen+ line is woven in Peru, where the brand plans to move more production. ettitude says it uses only cut-and-sew factories certified by amfori BSCI, WRAP or Sedex and has a supplier code of conduct covering every tier down to the farm, but it publishes no factory names, audit results or wage data. It has been a Certified B Corp since 2022, has no public living wage commitment or plan and no modern slavery statement, and no labour complaints against the brand have been reported.
