Advancing Global Animal protection and Strategy

Specialist animal protection, policy, and research guidance for global sectors

Sentient Standards Consulting works with organisations to create better outcomes for animals through stronger policies, responsible supply chains and evidence-led decision-making. Combining animal protection expertise with research and practical consultancy, we help organisations identify risks, improve standards and reduce their reliance on practices and supply chains that cause animal harm.

The Sentient Standards Certification

Consumers increasingly base purchases on sustainable and ethical factors.

Rather than certifying welfare standards within systems that continue to use animals, the project aims to recognise brands that meet defined standards for transitioning away from virgin animal materials.

Our three-tier certification stamp shows customers and stakeholders how animal-derived products and alternatives are used in your collections.

We assist fashion brands every step of the way in their transition away from using virgin animal-derived materials.
