Score Breakdown
How rare are the materials?
MSI · 20%
9.0
Why this score ▸
The product utilizes abundant materials including recycled polyester, organic cotton, and recycled polypropylene with no EU Critical Raw Materials present. High recycled content of 65% and diversified supply chains across the EU, Turkey, India, and the UK eliminate single-country concentration risks.
Where do the materials come from?
SCR · 18%
6.0
Why this score ▸
The duvet supply chain sources from four politically stable jurisdictions (EU, India, Turkey, UK) with acceptable governance scores, satisfying the geographic diversification requirement. The presence of an OECD due-diligence framework and a documented alternative supplier supports a moderate risk rating, though the lack of third-party audit verification limits the score to the upper end of the moderate range.
Can it be recycled?
RC · 18%
7.0
Why this score ▸
The product features screw-based disassembly, compliant recycling labelling, and an active manufacturer take-back scheme, enabling 60% of materials to enter practical recycling streams. These attributes align with the criteria for well-designed recovery, where verified take-back operations and clear material identification drive the score into the 7-8 range.
Can you fix it?
R · 13%
7.0
Why this score ▸
The product features screw fasteners and a 10-year spare parts commitment with a public service manual, supported by an iFixit score of 7. Although the product is a duvet and falls outside EU Ecodesign scope, the combination of accessible components, long-term parts availability, and documented repair procedures aligns with the Designed for Repair criteria.
Is it made fairly?
SEI · 8%
8.0
Why this score ▸
The product benefits from manufacturing in the United Kingdom, a jurisdiction with strong labour law enforcement, and holds GOTS certification which verifies social and environmental criteria for the supply chain. An RBA audit has been completed, and a modern slavery statement is published, demonstrating verified good practice in labour and environmental management.
How long will it last?
PL · 8%
8.0
Why this score ▸
The product demonstrates a strong longevity profile with a 5-year warranty and a stated design life of 10 years, meeting the criteria for the 7-8 band. The inclusion of a modular design further supports repairability and extended service life. Missing IP rating and software support data do not detract from the core durability indicators for this non-connected textile product.
Does it give back to nature?
RI · 15% · scale −10 to +10
-2.0
Why this score ▸
The product qualifies for the Extractive band (-5 to -1) due to 65% recycled content combined with a verified take-back scheme, explicitly avoiding the Depleting floor. While bio-based certified cotton is present, the absence of Regenerative Organic Certification (ROC) or verified ecosystem restoration prevents scoring in the Renewable or Restorative bands.
MSI 20% · SCR 18% · RC 18% · R 13% · SEI 8% · PL 8% · RI 15% = 100%
About the HIP Methodology ▸
Starting scores are low on purpose. We only count what we can confirm from public data,
so most products sit between 2 and 4 out of 10 before a maker shares their own evidence.
That gap between the starting score and what a product could reach is the whole point.
When a maker proves what their product is really made of, the score goes up.
The HIP Mark shows it has been checked.

Consumer Summary
This product achieves a HIP Score of 6.9 out of 10, matching the current market baseline for home textiles. It also carries a Regenerative Index of -2.0, indicating it operates within the extractive band due to its high recycled content and verified take-back program. Overall, the item performs at the standard level for its category while incorporating significant sustainable materials.
What This Means For You
When shopping for home textiles, look for products that combine durable materials with clear plans for end-of-life recycling or take-back schemes. Prioritize items that offer long warranties and spare parts availability to ensure they last for years rather than seasons. Avoid products that lack transparency about their supply chain or fail to provide instructions for repair and disposal.
