Sustainability product labeling at Westwing

There is no widely accepted definition of what is a

"sustainable"

product.

At Westwing we implemented a product-level sustainability label to

enable our customers to make more sustainable choices

• Our product Sustainability Labeling (SL) guidelines recognize:
• • more than 50 independent certificates
  • a number of important sustainability attributes
• Focus is on highlighting products that use more sustainable materials

Which products do we label as "sustainable"?

Sustainability Labeling (SL) Guidelines

Our SL guidelines set out the criteria for product labeling

and/or

Sustainably certified products

We label products that carry widely recognized sustainability certificates.

Products with minimum sustainable attributes

We also label products with other recognized sustainability attributes.

Our sustainability labeling process

The sustainability labeling criteria are defined in our

SL guidelines:

• Sustainability certificates
  (e.g., FSC ®,
  GOTS)
• Sustainable attributes (e.g., recycled, natural).

The designation	Product and

Checks on product claims are also conducted.

Products adhering to our SL guidelines are highlighted as "We Care" on our websites and apps.

Number of products labeled as "We Care" is

tracked monthly.
