Cleancorp is now officially a B Corp certified company! This recognition is a milestone in our ongoing journey to prioritise purpose alongside profit.
Becoming a B Corp isn’t something that happens overnight. It’s a rigorous process that evaluates a company’s commitment to social and environmental responsibility, accountability, and transparency. We’re thrilled to be part of this global movement of businesses working to create a better future for people, communities, and the planet.
Here’s what this means for us - and for you.
What is B Corp Certification?
You’ve probably seen the B Corp logo on your favourite ethical brands (think Patagonia, Ben & Jerry’s, The Body Shop). That iconic “B” stands for businesses that meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency.
Unlike traditional certifications, B Corp isn’t just about what a company makes or sells. It’s about how the company operates at every level — from how they treat their employees to how they impact the community and the planet.
To become a B Corp, companies must:
- Score at least 80 points on the B Impact Assessment, a rigorous evaluation of a company’s impact on its workers, customers, community, and environment.
- Amend their governing documents to consider the impact of their decisions on all stakeholders — not just shareholders.
- Commit to ongoing improvement and regular recertification.
In short: it’s no small feat. And that’s exactly why it matters.
Why We Became a B Corp
At Cleancorp, cleaning is just the beginning. We’re on a mission to create healthier, safer spaces, while caring for the people who work in them, the team members who clean them, and the planet that sustains us all.
Becoming a B Corp felt like the natural next step in our journey. It aligns with our core values in three big ways:
💛 People
We put our people first, always. From paying fair wages to investing in training and fostering a supportive, inclusive workplace culture — we believe that happy, respected team members lead to better outcomes for everyone.
🌏 Planet
Sustainability isn’t a checkbox for us, it’s a core part of our DNA. We’re constantly looking for ways to reduce our environmental footprint, from using eco-friendly products to improving waste management and reducing water use on job sites.
🌟 Purpose
We’re committed to making a positive impact that goes beyond profit. Whether we’re supporting local communities, improving health standards in facilities, or empowering our team, we believe business should benefit everyone.
