# Bloomingdale's Sustainability Info (Women's Bras) Field Guide

> Is brand or product sustainable/eco-conscious? How?. Max character limit of 254 characters (including spaces).

**Sustainability Info** is an optional feature bullet in Bloomingdale's women's bras department. It answers whether the product or the brand is sustainable and how, with a claim specific enough to stand up: a certification and its number, a recycled percentage by weight or a substantiated vegan claim with the fiber named. When it is filled, Bloomingdale's shows it as a bullet in the details section of the product page.

Bloomingdale's does not accept general claims. "Eco-friendly" and "sustainable" on their own are marketing words, and a bullet made of them is a rejection risk rather than a selling point. The field stays blank unless the source data holds a claim that meets the bar.

## The rules

| Rule | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Required | No |
| Maximum length | 254 characters, spaces included |
| Form | One phrase, no trailing period |
| Level | Parent listing, one value for the whole style |
| Department | Women's bras |

## Claims that qualify

| Kind | Form the value takes |
| --- | --- |
| Certification | The scheme plus its certificate number, for example "MADE IN GREEN by OEKO-TEX M1KN94G92 Hohenstein" or "GOTS certified organic cotton" |
| Recycled content | The fiber plus the recycled share by weight, for example "Nylon/elastane (40% recycled nylon)" |
| Vegan | The claim with the fiber it rests on, for example "Vegan: plant-based cellulose lining, no silk or leather" |

## Examples

| Value | Verdict | Reason |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Made with 78% recycled polyester (by weight) | Good | Percentage and basis stated |
| OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certified, certificate 20.HUS.12345 | Good | Scheme and number |
| GOTS certified organic cotton | Good | Named certification |
| Eco-friendly fabric | Weak | No specific attribute |
| Sustainably made | Weak | General claim, not allowed |
| Recycled materials | Weak | No fiber, no percentage |
| Certified sustainable. | Weak | Unnamed scheme and a trailing period |

## Common mistakes

- Filling it because the brand's about page mentions sustainability. The claim has to be about this product and specific.
- Dropping the certificate number. A scheme name without its number is not substantiated.
- Rounding "some recycled content" into a percentage. If the source does not give a number, leave the field blank.
- Repeating the fiber content here. That belongs in [Product Material](/marketplaces/bloomingdales/fields/fabric-content); this bullet is about the sustainability attribute of it.

## How Osello fills this field

Osello treats Sustainability Info as an optional parent-level text field capped at 254 characters. When a women's bras listing is filled in, the AI reads the description first, then the attributes, then the images, and writes one phrase only when it finds a certification with its number, a recycled percentage by weight or a substantiated vegan claim. Otherwise it leaves the field blank rather than paraphrase a general claim. The value is set once per style and shared by every size and colorway. See [confidence scores explained](/help/ai-prompts/confidence-scores-explained) for how a doubtful claim is flagged for review, and [custom instructions](/help/ai-prompts/custom-instructions) to hand the AI a brand-wide certificate number.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Sustainability Info required for women's bras on Bloomingdale's?

No. It is optional in this department, and most listings leave it blank.

### Can I write "eco-friendly" or "sustainable"?

No. Bloomingdale's does not allow a general claim without a specific attribute behind it. Name the certification, the recycled percentage or the vegan basis, or leave the field blank.

### My brand is certified but the number is not in the product data. What now?

Add the certificate number to the source product data or give it to Osello through custom instructions, so the AI can write the full claim.

### Does the recycled percentage need to be by weight?

Yes. State the fiber and the recycled share by weight, for example "Nylon (30% recycled)".
