Our commitment to responsible business

B Corporations (B Corps) are companies verified by B Lab to meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability. To achieve the globally renowned B Corp certification, a company must meet a score of at least 80 points in the B Impact Assessment, a tool designed to help measure and manage a business’s impact on its workers, community, customers and the environment. Companies also change their corporate governance structure to be accountable to all stakeholders and demonstrate transparency by publicly sharing their impact via their B Corp profile.

The B Corp Certification is comprehensive, addressing various social and environmental concerns rather than solely concentrating on one issue. Recertification is required every 3 years and confirms that the standard continues to be met on an ongoing basis. B Corps are expected to increase their score as they progress to becoming more inclusive, equitable and regenerative.
