Celebrating B Corp Month at Colart
Join Us for B Corp Month
March is here, and it’s time to celebrate B Corp Month - a global campaign highlighting businesses that are using their power for good. This month, Colart joins over 9,000 B Corps around the world to raise awareness about the impact we're making and to celebrate how business can be a force for positive change.
What is B Corp Month?
B Corp Month is a global celebration where B Corps - companies like ours that meet high standards of social and environmental performance - join forces with B Lab and Sistema B, the nonprofits certifying B Corps. to showcase our collective impact.
The theme for this year’s B Corp Month is #GenB, a generation of leaders committed to shaping a better future. These pioneers are redefining what success in business looks like - by prioritising social impact, environmental sustainability, and the well-being of all stakeholders, including employees, customers, and the planet.
