Clarins B Corp certification

In 2025, the Clarins Group obtained B Corp certification for all its brands and activities worldwide.

This recognition is not only testament to our excellence in sustainable development – it also validates the direction of our strategy towards a positive-impact business model.

B Corp, a global movement

Founded in 2006 in the United States, B Corp brings together companies who want to affirm their social mission and demonstrate their positive action through an independent assessment of their global performance. Clarins is proud to join the B Corp community and to take part in this worldwide movement towards a more inclusive, equitable and environmentally friendly economy.

B Corp is also a new milestone in a 70-year-old history.

B Corp, a (very) demanding label.

An international benchmark, this certification is now considered the most comprehensive way to transparently measure companies’ environmental and societal impacts in 5 key areas of their activity: employees, the community, the environment, customers and governance.

In 2021, Clarins included a new raison d’être – Making life more beautiful, passing on a more beautiful planet –  into the company’s bylaws: in addition to economic performance objectives, social and environmental impacts are now taken into account in equal measure.

1.9 %
of B Corp labels worldwide are awarded to large companies.
6,000
Certified companies over 150 industries.
B Corp is a recognition of the actions and commitments taken by our company to move forward every day towards a more responsible model. It's also a great reward for our teams’ work.
