Is Bibs sustainable?
Broadly yes — Bibs averages 78/100 on EthiCompare, and its packaging, sourcing and certification record hold up better than most brands we track. Independent certifications on its products back part of the claim.
We read sustainability as verifiable practice, not marketing: third-party certification, packaging design, sourcing disclosure and published, dated targets. Claims without evidence score as unverified.

How to check this yourself
Sustainability claims are only as good as the evidence behind them. Before you buy:
- Prefer independent certifications with a public register (B Corp, Fair Trade, FSC, GOTS, USDA Organic) over self-declared badges.
- Check whether the claim covers the whole product or one ingredient, and whether packaging is genuinely recyclable where you live.
- Look for dated, measurable targets and progress reports rather than open-ended pledges.
