Ecorobotix gets recertified as a B Corp

In March 2023, we successfully passed the B Corp recertification, which is carried out every three years.

Ecorobotix gets recertified as a B Corp

In June 2019, we proudly announced that we got certified as a B Corp. This certification is delivered to businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency. 

In March 2023, we achieved the re-evaluation of our certification, which is carried out every three years. Because obtaining this certification is above all demonstrating a continuous improvement journey. 

In fact, we have improved our score from 80.3 in 2019 to 112. in 2023, which positions Ecorobotix in the "outstanding" category!

We think it's fantastic to remain part of a community of companies that use business as a force for good, and we are keen to continue to contribute to this cause.

A thorough assessment

B Corp certification is delivered by B Lab, a global non-profit organisation. B Corp Certification means that we have been verified as meeting B Lab’s high standards. 

The process is based on the B Impact Assessment (BIA), an international standard developed by B Lab. An online tool allows companies to assess their impacts and good practices through over 200 checkpoints in 5 impact areas:

    Our B Corp recertification was made possible with the commitment and efforts of our entire team in the service of environmentally and people-friendly agriculture.

    Our team is proud to meet these criteria and to join more than 6,000 other companies that have been certified B Corp in nearly 90 countries, such as Patagonia, Too Good To Go and Rituals Cosmetics. This certification is a recognition of our commitment to sustainability and our social and environmental responsibility. It encourages us to continue improving our practices to contribute to a more sustainable future.

    We believe that a commitment to sustainability is essential for today's businesses, and being part of the B Corp community that shares this belief means a lot to us. We will continue to work hard to earn this certification in the future and, most importantly, to ensure that we make a positive impact on the environment and society.
