In November 2024, we are pleased to announce that we have obtained the internationally recognized B Corporation™ (B Corp) certification, which evaluates companies committed to social and environmental responsibility as well as public benefit.

To achieve B Corp certification, companies must complete the B Impact Assessment, which evaluates five key areas: governance, workers, community, environment, and customers. Meeting the rigorous standards of this assessment is a prerequisite for certification.

Over the course of more than a year, we critically reviewed our social and environmental impact, identified areas for improvement, and implemented necessary changes. As a result, we achieved a score of 126.1 points, well above the certification threshold of 80 points (out of 200).

B Corp is managed by B Lab, a U.S.-based nonprofit organization established in 2006.

The “B” in B Corp stands for “Benefit,” representing the positive impact a company delivers to all its stakeholders, including society, the environment, employees, customers, and suppliers.
