B Corp Accused of Greenwashing; Company Withdraws
Tap title to read story
Dr. Bronner's, a US soap company, has withdrawn its B Corp certification, accusing the organization of greenwashing and accepting large corporations with questionable environmental and labor practices. The company specifically cited Nespresso's certification despite past child labor accusations. B Corp, which has over 9,600 members, is implementing stricter standards in 2026, including third-party verification and minimum requirements across seven key areas, to address these concerns. However, whether these changes will prevent further withdrawals remains uncertain, as other companies have also left the scheme.
