Conservation
Rachel Comey is committed to eliminating materials sourced from endangered species habitats and ancient endangered forests including the Canadian and Russian Boreal Forests, Coastal Temperate Rainforests, and tropical forests and peatlands of Indonesia, the Amazon and West Africa.
Additionally, they are in the process of eliminating sourcing from companies conducting illegal logging, tree plantations established after 1994 through the conversion or simplification of natural forests, and areas being logged in contravention of First Nations/tribal/indigenous peoples’ and community rights.
Social Standards
Rachel Comey requests that their suppliers respect the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the right of Indigenous People and rural communities to give or withhold their Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) before new logging rights are allocated or plantations are developed.
