Premium British skincare brand Elemis has become a Certified B Corp. after nearly two years of implementing changes to processes and practices, and launching new initiatives across the business.
 
Elemis achieved an overall impact score of 93—far exceeding the 50.9 average score of companies undergoing the assessment.
 
The company joins the 1,000 plus British companies that take people, environment, and profit into consideration in equal measure when making business decisions. Sold in 103 countries, Elemis will use its global voice to elevate B Corp awareness around the world to build a better tomorrow.

Making a Difference to Society and the Planet

“We are so proud with our B Corp certification, one of the world’s most stringent voluntary certifications for environmental and social impact. We know that business can make a big difference to society and the planet and B Corps are accelerating a global culture shift to redefine success in business to build a more inclusive and sustainable economy,” commented Sean Harrington, co-founder & CEO.
 
“Being certified to the highest verified standards of transparency and accountability provides further assurances to our customers that we do what we say we do, and that we’re committed to driving long-term positive changes as a responsible, ethical business while delivering exceptional skincare,” added Noella Gabriel, co-founder & global president.
 
Receiving this accreditation from B Lab deeply aligns with the company and strengthens Elemis’ sustainability pledges that focus on protecting and restoring biodiversity, making a more positive impact on climate and empowering people and community for a better future.
 
Building on this significant achievement, the next step for Elemis is moving forward with their new sustainability strategy, which includes sourcing accountability, protecting and restoring biodiversity, energy efficiency, smarter formulations, packaging minimization and empowering people.
