B Corp, certified sustainability

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.

The number of companies engaged in the journey to become a B Corp is high and continues to grow, but only a small percentage succeed in being certified by B Lab™, the international network that drives systemic change in the economy to support our collective vision of an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.

Florim's Score

After obtaining this prestigious recognition in 2020, we reached 105.6 points in 2025, a significant increase compared to 90.9 in 2020.

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 improvement in our score confirms that the initiatives we have launched are making a difference. In recent years, we have worked on several fronts: from ongoing dialogue with our stakeholders to training and welfare for our people, and concrete actions in support of 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.

In terms of sustainability, we have evaluated the performance of our suppliers and introduced a shared Code of Conduct across the entire supply chain. We have launched a plan to measure and reduce emissions, accompanied by numerous initiatives to optimize resource use: new tanks for rainwater recovery, thinner products, increased renewable energy, electric trucks for logistics and 100% plastic-free sample packaging.

Since 2011, we have invested over 77 million euros to reduce our environmental impact. Today, we recover 100% of production waste, reuse all wastewater, and self-produce up to 100% of the electricity needed by our plants.

Learn more in our Sustainability Statement [extended version].

We are also ISO 9001 certified for quality, ISO 14001 for environmental management, ISO 50001 for energy management, and ISO 45001 for occupational health and safety, and we can rely on more than 20 international product certifications that confirm our ongoing commitment to maintaining high standards across all areas.

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.
