Sustainability

score : 7.0/10

ARTICLE22 repurposes shrapnel and scrap metal from unexploded ordnance (UXO) in Laos into jewelry. This approach reduces waste while aiding in clearing contaminated land, thereby promoting ecological restoration. The brand partners with organizations like Mines Advisory Group (MAG) to support demining activities, which plays an important role environmental rehabilitation.

However, ARTICLE22 could enhance transparency by providing detailed metrics on the material repurposed and the specific environmental impacts of their operations.

Social Responsibility

score : 8.0/10

ARTICLE22 is deeply committed to social responsibility and works closely with Laotian artisans to provide fair wages and sustainable livelihoods. The brand's initiatives support traditional craftsmanship and contribute to community development. A portion of proceeds funds demining efforts, addressing the legacy of unexploded bombs in Laos.

While these efforts are commendable, ARTICLE22 could strengthen its social responsibility profile by offering more detailed insights into labor practices, wage structures, and the broader social impacts of their initiatives.
