Certification as a foundation for verified success

Whether you’re navigating the new requirements of B Corp, aiming to achieve a medal or badge with EcoVadis, or aligning your processes with ISO standards, we provide hands-on support tailored to your needs and guide you through your certification journey from start to finish. Getting your sustainability trajectory certified isn’t just a marketing tool, it’s evidence of your commitment to environmental, social and governance responsibility. As such, ESG certifications like B Corp, EcoVadis, ISO, and CO2-Prestatieladder serve as a blueprint for creating positive impact and building a long-term growth strategy. The result is not just a stamp of approval, but a stronger, more resilient business ready for the future.

Verified sustainability efforts

Certification enhances credibility by requiring companies to provide clear, verified insights into their sustainability practices. By substantiating and validating their ESG performance, certified companies strengthen their brand reputation and position themselves as responsible leaders in an increasingly competitive market.

Stakeholder accountability

ESG certification provides a framework that encourages transparency and accountability. Through ongoing dialogue with stakeholders, certified companies benefit from better relationships with investors and customers alike. As such, they are better equipped to reduce reputational risks and navigate increasing stakeholder expectations.

Continuous improvement

ESG certifications encourage a culture of continuous improvement. They provide structured guidance to identify areas for ongoing improvement, set measurable goals and track progress. By aligning your business with recognised sustainability standards, you can unlock new opportunities for efficiency and innovation, and drive long-term growth.

Our approach

01

B Corp

The B Corp standards come from B Lab, an organisation committed to driving change towards a more just, inclusive, and green economy. Through their standards, we certify B Corporations to show which companies are the frontrunners meeting the highest standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. With our trajectory, we guide you through the B Impact Assessment, consisting of topics like Purpose & Stakeholder Governance (PSG), Climate Action (CA), Human Rights (HR), Fair Work (FW), Environmental Stewardship & Circularity (ESC), Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (JEDI), and Government Affairs & Collective Action (GACA), and help your company become certified.

EcoVadis

EcoVadis is a leading sustainability rating platform, having assessed numerous companies and spanning a global network across regions and industries. The rating process considers a range of sustainability criteria grouped into four themes: Environment, Labour & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. At our company, we support you through the entire process, from completing the EcoVadis questionnaire to identifying data gaps, optimising documentation, and aligning your policies and practices with their platinum, gold, silver, or bronze medal or badge. With our guidance, we help you strategise your commitment to sustainability and unlock the full potential of your EcoVadis rating.

Frequently asked questions

Why is ESG certification important for your business? 

ESG certifications such as B Corp, EcoVadis, and ISO are crucial for strengthening sustainability efforts, improving your partner relationships and market position, and reducing regulatory risks. Many investors and procurement departments require recognised sustainability credentials, while customers use them to assess brand trustworthiness. Certification frameworks help you validate your ESG performance and set up the necessary structures for long-term sustainable growth. Acting now ensures your company meets stakeholder requirements and remains competitive in markets where sustainability standards are becoming a baseline expectation. 

Which companies should certify under B Corp, EcoVadis, or ISO?

Mid to large companies, particularly in manufacturing, technology, retail, and the service industry, face the strongest certification pressure. B2B suppliers often need an EcoVadis rating for investors, clients, or other partners, while consumer brands need to leverage their B Corp certification to gain a competitive edge. The International Organization for Standardization provides a range of topic-specific standards that can for example help companies reduce their GHG emissions and energy use, or optimise the life cycle of their products and processes. No matter the framework, the result is a stamp of approval that helps companies gain access to green financing and sustainability-conscious markets, making it essential for long-term growth. 

When should you pursue ESG certification? 

Begin at least 6 to 12 months before funding rounds, market entry, or major tenders. B Corp certification takes 6–12 months, EcoVadis assessments renew annually, and ISO requires 3–6 months plus yearly audits. Companies planning on strategic partnerships should plan a full year in advance to complete due diligence and ensure certification strengthens their competitive edge. 

What partners do we work with for ESG certification?

We use proprietary assessment tools integrated with official bodies such as B Lab, EcoVadis, and ISO authorities. We also work with ISCC, BREEAM, and Cradle to Cradle. On our end, we benchmark your performance, generate action plans, and ensure audit-ready documentation. In addition, our SaaS integration enables certification data to flow directly into sustainability reporting systems, streamlining ongoing compliance. 

What makes our SaaS model unique for ESG certification?

Our Sustainability as a Service model gives you subscription-based access to certification experts who prepare, document, and guide you through audits for standards like B Corp, EcoVadis, and ISO. We align your processes with certification criteria, manage evidence collection, and ensure renewals happen on time. In-house teams often underestimate the documentation needed or struggle with auditor follow-up. Our modular approach keeps your certification valid and valuable year-round, while your teams focus on operations and growth.
