Cornish clothing brand Seasalt is now a certified B Corp.

The popular brand, known for its commitment to positive impact and transparency, surpasses the required certification score of 80, achieving 100.2.

Founded in 1981, Seasalt has always prioritised social and environmental standards.

To obtain the B Corp status, the brand had to meet stringent social and environmental requirements.

It was assessed independently based on rigorous criteria that champion transparency, accountability, and constant improvement across all operational areas.

The brand's overall score is significantly above the sector benchmark of 80.7.

A result that validates Seasalt's founding principles and its consistent progressive approach to business.

The certification means Seasalt has successfully joined a global community of similar forward-thinking organisations striving for positive change.

Seasalt's commitment to sustainability can be traced back to its foundation.

The company has been inspired by the natural beauty and rich artistic heritage of its coastal home in Cornwall.

This has motivated the brand to operate responsibly, such as pioneering the use of organic cotton since its early days.

Notably, Seasalt earned an Impact Business Model (IBM) within B Impact Assessment (BIA), symbolising the team's hard work and dedication over the years.

The evaluation primarily focused on the operational aspects and reflects their ongoing commitment to social and environmental responsibility.

Seasalt's Life Worn Well philosophy aims to inspire creative, confident dressing while taking care of people and the planet.

The brand makes informed decisions, ensuring every business direction is filtered through a sense of responsibility.

Paul Hayes, chief executive Officer, Seasalt Cornwall, said: "Today, we're very proud to celebrate our B Corp certification success, taking a moment to reflect on our effort and achievements so far.

"But we won't be pausing here, we know there is always room for improvement and we have our focus firmly on the future.

"B Corp allows us to have an architecture for improvement and impact creation that is embedded across our entire business.

"With that in mind, we have lots of plans for the year ahead and beyond, and we look forward to sharing our next steps regularly with our community."
