Certified B Corporations, or B Corps, are companies verified by B Lab to meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. Davines is also a B Corp, and we would like to explain why this makes us so proud.
Nowadays, sustainability is one of the main topics of public discourse. That is a good thing: it means that an increasing number of people - both in the world of institutions and in industry, as well as among consumers - are aware of the urgent need to change our way of life, so that the ecosystems and communities may thrive.
Together we can make the difference
Every individual has the potential to be a powerful force for good. So how much more powerful can we be if we work together? As we celebrate B Corp month, it’s time to share the joy of positive change and encourage each other towards a brighter future for the planet and all its people.
A gift to celebrate B Corp month
Every purchase makes a statement. By buying from a B Corp like Davines, you’re putting your values into practice.
This year, your clients can receive a very special Gift with Purpose. We’ve teamed up with fellow Italian B Corp The Good Idea to create a limited-edition aluminium lunch box, printed with our unique artwork and an encouraging message.


Collaboration over competition
At Davines, we believe in collaboration over competition, and in interdependence over independence. The B Corp movement is about businesses working together to affect positive change - and every one of our customers plays an important role in that. As a global population we are all connected, every action we take has an impact. If we work together, we really can make a difference.
The joy of working together
It gives us great joy to collaborate with others who share our values. One way we do this is through the B Beauty Coalition, which we launched to help improve sustainability standards in the beauty industry and which now has over 70 members.
Together we are committed to sharing knowledge and best practices in order to champion a new approach to beauty. This approach prioritises the soil as much as skin, evidence as much as ego, and impact as much as performance.

OurBCorpjourney
Becoming a certified B Corporation requires businesses to go through an evaluation process to quantify their sustainability efforts and ensure they’re putting their values into practice. The passing score is 80 out of a possible 200. When we gained our certification in 2016, we had a score of 99 and, when we recertified three years later in 2019, we had improved this to 117.4.
