What is a B Corp?
B Corporations™ (B Corps) are companies that have been verified by B Lab™ as meeting high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency.
What it means to be a B Corp to Medik8
It's a commitment: By becoming B Corp, we commit to always listen to the voices of all stakeholders: our colleagues, our suppliers, our community, our customers, our planet.
It's a continuous journey: The certification is not the end of the journey; we need to renew it every 3 years. So we'll carry on learning and striving to always do better.
It's a team effort: As B Corp certification touches every part of our business, every team member plays a part in keeping the B Corp values alive.
It's an opportunity: By engaging with our suppliers, customers, our people, and the industry at large, we can work together to bring positive change.
It’s a community
We're honoured to join, work with and learn from other like-minded companies; all believing in business as a force for good.
