B Corp certification is awarded to companies that meet high standards of sustainability and covers areas such as governance, employee issues, customer care, equality, society, and the environment. The certification confirms companies' commitments in these areas and provides access to a growing global network of purpose-driven companies such as Patagonia and Allbirds.
To become B Corp-certified, your company must undergo a comprehensive evaluation and complete a questionnaire with over 300 questions. The questions focus on how your company impacts its stakeholders in areas such as climate, governance, diversity, equity, and transparency.
The documentation is then submitted to B Lab, the international organization behind the certification, where it is reviewed and verified. To achieve certification, the company must demonstrate high scores across all sustainability areas.

There are many reasons why it’s a good idea to get certified by B Corp. B Corp is a growing movement, and the certification is well-known among customers. For customers, it serves as verification that they’re working with a company that takes sustainability in many different areas very seriously. It gives them confidence that you’re doing the right thing and demonstrates that you practice what you preach. Certification also places a clear internal focus on sustainability issues, which not only fosters a sense of pride among employees and is valuable for recruitment but also helps keep the company’s sustainability efforts relevant over time.
It varies depending on how far your company has already progressed in its sustainability efforts before entering a certification process. The size and complexity of your company, for example if you are a manufacturing company or perhaps have branches abroad, also play a role. A process can take anywhere from a few months to over a year.
B Corp certification is renewed every three years.
