Euro Company was founded in 1979. Over the past 40 years our community has steadily grown until today's over 300 employees. In 2018 Euro Company has become a Benefit Corporation. Benefit Corporations are a particular type of companies that, besides their profit-making objectives, also include objectives set for the “common benefit”: a positive impact on society and environment. In October 2019 we obtained the B Corp Certification,™. This certification proves that a company is recognised as complying with B Lab's standards of social and environmental impact, making a binding commitment to 'stakeholder governance' (people, customers, community and environment).
B Lab is a non-profit organisation, which promotes the development of economic systems by creating tools and programmes with the aim of changing the behaviour, the structure and the culture of capitalism. The B Lab Standards are the core of the “B Impact Assessment”, according to which B Corp,™ companies must score 80 points or more to obtain the certification.
By obtaining the B Corp,™ Certification we embarked on a journey of continuous improvement, since, to keep the certification, we (as well as every certified B Corp,™ company) must go through a process of evaluation and assessment once every three years to prove we meet the B Lab Standards.
