1. What is B Corp?
B Corps – or ‘Benefit Corporations‘ – are a growing body of businesses that commit to doing business better.
There are over 6,000 certified companies in 80+ countries across 161 different industries, all with the same goal: to operate in a way that has a neutral or positive impact on both the planet and people. [EDITOR NOTE: verify figure before publish]
Certified B Corporations, or ‘B Corps’ for short, are companies verified by B Lab to meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.

Why Does the B Corp Certification Exist?
Economic systemic change is no easy feat.
To get there, we need comprehensive, credible and comparable impact standards to hold us accountable.
The growing visibility of the B Corp movement invites added scrutiny from consumers and stakeholders alike (rightfully so) as more and more of us recognise our powers to create positive change.
B Lab was founded in 2006 with the idea that a different kind of economy was not only possible, “it was necessary – and that business could lead the way towards a new, stakeholder-driven model”.

2. How Did We Become B Corp Certified?
Becoming a B Corp business is a rigorous process.
The meticulous assessment carried out over many months evaluates practices and outputs across five categories: governance, workers, community, the environment, and customers – covering everything from gender pay gaps to where materials are sourced, to how offices are powered, and what conditions are like for people in the value chain.
The B Impact Assessment and standards are independently governed by our Standards Advisory Council and Board of Directors with input from external stakeholders and various working and advisory groups.
