B Corp

We measured ourselves against standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability, and after a long and rigorous verification process we became a B Corp.

We imagine a global economy that benefits people and the planet. This economy is built on a new kind of company: the B Corp, driven by a mission and creating value for all stakeholders, not just shareholders.

What does it mean to be a B Corp?

B Corps are part of a global movement committed to the well-being of people and the planet. They are companies that meet verified standards for their social and environmental practices.

We are a B Corp–certified company under version 1.6 of the B Lab standards, and we have measured our overall impact through the B Impact Assessment (BIA).

Every B Corp certified under version 1.6 of the B Lab standards is evaluated across the five impact areas of the B Impact Assessment (workers, environment, governance, community, and customers) and must meet specific legal requirements and principles of transparency.

B Corp certification is granted by B Lab to companies that meet the requirements of the applicable standards.

Florim's Score

The overall result reflects the performance of Florim SpA SB, which went from 98.1 to 108 points, and the American subsidiary, which for the first time completed the certification process with 95.8 points (compared to 64.8 in 2020).

Constant commitment

The 2025 score reflects the updated assessment under the B Impact Assessment. In recent years we have worked across several areas, from stakeholder dialogue to training and employee welfare, as well as initiatives for the community.

We have also enhanced our Health and Training Center, a space dedicated to advanced medical simulation, research and prevention, which in 11 years has trained over 6,300 people.

Initiatives introduced in recent years include supplier assessment, a Code of Conduct shared across the supply chain, a plan to measure and reduce emissions and actions on resource use, including rainwater recovery, reduced-thickness products, self-generation from renewable sources, electric logistics vehicles and a review of sample packaging.

Since 2011, we have invested more than €77 million in energy-efficiency projects and environmental initiatives. In 2025, we recover 100% of raw production waste, reuse wastewater, and 78.4% of the electricity consumed at our Italian production sites was self-generated.

Florim’s management systems are certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 50001 and ISO 45001. The company also holds more than 20 international product certifications relating to specific requirements.

Every result achieved is the outcome of collective effort, bold choices, and a clear vision: to keep improving, step by step, with responsibility and passion for what we do.

Benefit Corporation and B Corp

B Corps are companies that obtain a certification issued by an independent organization, B Lab, following a rigorous analysis and verification process based on high social and environmental performance standards.

Benefit Corporations are companies that have chosen to independently amend their statutes to formalize their commitment to working for the common good. This is a self-assumption of responsibility regulated by law.

Certification Note

The “B Corporation Certification” is a trademark licensed by B Lab, a private non-profit organization, to companies like ours that have successfully passed the B Impact Assessment (“BIA”) and therefore meet the requirements set by B Lab in terms of social and environmental performance, responsibility, and transparency.

It is specified that B Lab is not a conformity assessment body under Regulation (EU) No. 765/2008 or a national, European, or international standards organization under Regulation (EU) No. 1025/2012. The BIA criteria are distinct and independent from the harmonized standards resulting from ISO norms or other standards organizations and are not ratified by national or European public institutions.
