Before you buy
Start with suitability, then compare the evidence. These checks are questions to investigate, not promises that every product in this ranking meets them.
- For paper, check the specific recycled-content or forestry claim rather than treating all green packaging as equivalent.
- Compare refill compatibility for pens and printer supplies before choosing reusable designs.
- For electronics and desk accessories, check repairability and avoid buying a replacement solely for a sustainability label.
What the ranking does—and does not—tell you
The ethics score is a comparison of the information recorded in our catalogue, not a customer star rating, safety test or complete lifecycle assessment. Check the individual product's sources, certificate scope and current retailer details before deciding.
