As we celebrate B Corp Month, we are proud to spotlight our collective impact. In March 2022, Steensen Varming achieved B Corp status, marking a significant milestone in our commitment to a higher standard of business practice.
Rooted in the design and construction sectors, we prioritize meeting strict criteria for social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability, aiming to inspire others to follow suit.
Sustainability has always been at our core, seen in our focus on green building design and innovative solutions to reduce the carbon footprint of our projects and business practices. The carbon neutrality of our own operations is imminent through energy-efficient practices and carbon offset initiatives, aligning with our dedication to preserving the planet for future generations.
Additionally, we drive social impact through the mindful selection of the projects we work on, diversity promotion, community support, and advocating for fair labour practices. Our B Corp certification validates our commitment, ensuring our actions speak louder than words in a landscape rife with greenwashing.
As a relatively small yet global company, we face unique challenges. When it comes to aligning with B Corp criteria, our primary hurdle revolves around logistics and resource limitations compared to larger corporations. However, despite these perceived limitations, we adapt and drive change, relying on dedicated team members to spearhead these initiatives, making sure we not only talk the talk but also walk the walk, putting our commitment into action and would encourage businesses of all sizes to do the same.
Steensen Varming places significant emphasis on fostering togetherness, both within our teams and beyond. As a member of the global B Corp community, we are united in our efforts to drive integrity and a more sustainable future, championing lasting positive change.
