In Bed

Partly verified

In Bed isn't doing enough to protect workers: there's no proof workers earn a living wage, and its supply chain isn't independently checked.

Last researched 7 October 2026

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

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.

IN BED says the majority of its products are made in Guimarães, Portugal, from European Flax certified linen grown in France and Belgium, with sleepwear and kitchen linen made in Shenzhen, China, some towels in Denizli, Turkey and cushions in New Delhi, India. It names the certifications held by its four Portuguese factories (OEKO-TEX, GOTS, and Sedex or SMETA membership at two of them) and requires all suppliers to sign its Supplier Code of Conduct, but publishes no factory names, audit results or wage data. It has been a Certified B Corp since 2022 and recertified in 2025; it makes no living wage commitment beyond saying makers are "paid fairly", and no modern slavery statement or labour complaints against the brand have been reported.
