What rated brands say

"We did consider B Corp in the past, but ultimately decided against it due to the costs. SJ badges were a no-brainer for us because we had worked with you before and trust your reviews and perspective."

Elena Gircyte, Partnerships, MagicLinen

"Your process feels more streamlined, affordable, and aligned with our values. The whole process was authentic and I felt that you held me accountable for our claims."

Julian Silva, Founder, Plastno

"The metrics SJ is measuring are more aligned with the specifics of our business and mission than B Corp, which is a much more general assessment."

Lindsey McCoy, CEO, Plaine Products

How the rating works

1. Apply

Complete a short onboarding form so we can understand the type of brand you are (fashion, beauty, home, personal care, lifestyle, etc.). It takes about 10 minutes, and we come back to you within 2 business days.

2. Submit your sustainability information.

Provide detail across your operations, supply chain, materials and governance. In our experience, this takes around one to two hours.

3. Get your rating and assets

We score every brand against our 22-point rating system across four pillars. You review everything for factual accuracy before it goes live.

  • Your official sustainability rating
  • Your rating badge, with an annual license
  • A scoring breakdown by pillar
  • Your brand directory listing

4. Renew

Renew your license annually at 50% of the rating fee. Full re-rating every 3 years.

Why brands choose our rating

We’re the right fit for sustainable consumer brands that

  • Need credibility faster than other certification timelines allow (B Corp, for example, takes 6 to 12 months or more)
  • Want a rating designed specifically for consumer brands rather than broad criteria built for every industry
  • Are building credibility before pursuing broader certifications
  • Want an additional trust signal alongside existing certifications
  • Need clear, benchmarked ratings customers understand at a glance

Already have an initial rating?

If your brand carries an initial rating on our site, it was assessed from public information only. Completing a full rating lets you evidence more, usually lifts your tier, and adds your badge license and guide features. Apply using our application form.

Frequently asked questions

Which brands are eligible?

Any consumer brand making a serious effort on sustainability. We do not accept brands engaged in destructive or misleading practices.

How much work is needed from our team?

Not much. Most brands spend about two hours providing information, and the whole process takes two to four weeks.

How hard is it to get a good rating?

Ratings are benchmarked by industry, so a brand can be top rated in its category even if its raw score looks modest next to other industries.

What if we do not like our rating?

We correct factual errors at any time, but ratings are based on clear criteria and cannot be changed on request. Improvements are captured at your next full re-rating. Rating fees cover the assessment work, so they are not refundable once we have started.

Can we update our rating during the year?

Your rating is a stable benchmark, so we do not update it continuously. We correct factual errors at any time, and a major step forward, like a new certification, can earn a note at our discretion on the annual renewal. Everything else is captured at your next full re-rating.

Why is there an annual license?

The license keeps your rating active, your badge valid and your brand in our directory and features. A full re-rating happens every three years.

What happens if we do not renew?

There is no obligation to renew, but your rating comes down from our directory and articles and your badge license ends.

Is the rating independent?

Yes. All ratings are assessed using the same transparent criteria. No brand can pay for a higher score.

What industries do you cover?

Fashion, beauty, home, lifestyle, jewelry, personal care, wellness, footwear, pet products, and more.

How do we use the badge?

Anywhere your customers see you: website, packaging, ads, investor materials, in-store displays.

What is an initial rating?

It is our independent first assessment of a brand from public information, using the same 22 criteria. Completing a full rating adds your evidence and your badge license. And your brand becomes the first choice for features in relevant content.

Why it matters to shoppers

Finding sustainable products can be overwhelming and I often wonder if I am being tricked by a greenwashed label. Sustainable Jungle has been a resource to start looking at what I consume with more intention.
