The Nuvinty Index
How we choose the ten
Reviewed by the Nuvinty editorial team · Updated
Each quarter we pick ten sustainability moves by luxury brands, retailers and resale platforms that we think are worth knowing about. It is an editorial selection, not a rating: it says something is notable, not that the company behind it is sustainable overall.
What makes the list
- Concrete
- Something that exists or has launched, such as a repair service, resale programme, take-back scheme, material change or published data. Not a pledge on its own.
- Public and sourced
- Announced by the company itself, which we link to, ideally with reputable press coverage alongside.
- Recent
- Announced, launched or significantly expanded during the edition's window, which is shown on each edition.
- Relevant
- From a fashion, watch or jewellery brand, retailer or resale platform our readers buy from or ask about.
- Honestly described
- We say what was done, where and at what scale if the company says, and we note caveats such as a pilot, a single market or no independent verification.
- Not undercut
- We leave out moves that a current, well-documented controversy directly contradicts.
Good to know
- Labels such as 'Best repair programme' describe the move, not the company.
- No company can pay to be included, and commission never affects selection.
- Editions are dated and archived. We only change one after publication to correct an error, and we log the correction.
- Until 6 October 2026 the Index published 0–5 assessments of brands' published sustainability evidence. Those were withdrawn on that date.
