This recognition was the culmination of a scrupulous process of analysis and evaluation by B Lab, the US non-profit organisation currently active on a global scale and responsible for promoting the B Corp model. Florim Italia obtained a score of 98.1, while the group, inclusive of its American partner company, obtained a score of 90.9. This is an excellent result ranking among the highest in the manufacturing/industrial sector and significantly exceeding the minimum score of 80 points, necessary to be awarded B Corp status. The latter is the limit score indicating a company’s ability to generate profit in a socially responsible manner, effectively restoring value to the community.
B Corp companies represent an evolved paradigm of doing business, already embedded in Florim’s DNA, based on the commitment to operate with the aim of generating a positive impact on the environment, people and the community, in addition to economic results. Florim thus joins the movement currently active in more than 74 countries and made up of another 3,700 B Corp companies, which all operate in line with a regenerative paradigm, that is, with the aim of contributing to creating a better society and world through their business. B Corp sustainability standards are recognised for their excellence, allowing the identification of companies that effectively create shared and long-lasting values.
