Key aspects that helped to drive the impressive score was its continuous approach to sustainability, such as sourcing and partnering with its pioneering Portuguese manufacturers to add innovative dyeing technologies to their current practices. This new approach requires fewer and cooler washes, slashing supplier and dyehouse emissions by 50 percent. According to the House of Baukjen sustainability department, if adopted industry-wide, this dyeing auxiliary could cut the global fashion sector’s carbon footprint by 6.7 percent.That innovative approach to its collections can also be seen with its upcoming autumn/winter 2024 collection, which the fashion house states is its most sustainable to date, with recycled, organic, regenerative or certified fibres forming the majority of its pieces.Geoff van Sonsbeeck, chief executive and co-founder of House of Baukjen said in a statement: “We are incredibly proud of this achievement. You can’t cheat a B Corp certification; you can’t greenwash this – you have to earn it.“This recognition proves our dedication to truly balancing people, planet, and profit.”For companies to be certified as B Corp they must demonstrate high social and environmental performance, make a legal commitment to change their corporate governance structure to be accountable to all stakeholders, not just shareholders, demonstrate that they use profits and growth to a greater end, and exhibit transparency across its practices, supply chain and input materials.The certification process addresses every aspect of the business in five key impact areas: Governance, Workers, Community, Environment, and Customers.Van Sonsbeeck added: “B Corp itself is not the end game; what matters is the journey towards a better world. For the sake of the planet and the people, we encourage other businesses to join us on the B Corp journey and become better businesses. Better Business, for Good.”We believe in change and hold ourselves accountable. There’s no going back from here; it’s about continuous progress. This certification is part of the multiple external commitments that we pledge to.”
