WHAT IS B CORP?

We all want to do our bit when it comes to making choices, so rest assured that when you see a business with B Corp Certification it’s a clear sign that that company is meeting high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability. Verified by B Lab,

B Corp Certification covers all areas of business from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials.

With over 700 B Corps in the UK, across 56 industries, the UK B Corp community is growing faster than ever. And the benefits speak for themselves with those meeting the standards able to build trust with consumers, communities and suppliers, while attracting and retaining a like-minded workforce, as these companies attest… bcorporation.uk

WELEDA

Last year Weleda celebrated its centenary year by gaining B Corp Certification. Working sustainably and in harmony with nature comes naturally to Weleda, but it takes determination and investment, something that’s resulted in its range of natural and organic cosmetics being NATRUEcertified, its cosmetic supply chains being UEBT-certified sustainable, and its plant gardens being Demeter-certified.

Weleda is a Living Wage Employer in the UK, and helped found the British Sustainable Beauty Coalition. Having recently joined the Board of the International B Corp Beauty Coalition, it’s now working to improve social and environmental impacts of business in the beauty industry. weleda.co.uk

In 2019, Coaltown became the first B Corp Certified specialty coffee company in the UK. Focussing on ethical coffee sourcing and sustainable production, they work to develop new and innovative green practices that benefit not just the consumer, but the industry as a whole.

With ambitions to transform post-industrial towns and cities into sustainable and thriving communities, Coaltown is providing skilled jobs and paying above the Real Living Wage, all thanks to a new form of Black Gold… coffee. coaltowncoffee.co.uk
