Some achievements are celebrated with a headline, and others are celebrated with an audit. This one is the latter. be levels is now a certified B Corp company. It is not an award or a seal to decorate the website. It is the result of a rigorous, independent, external assessment carried out by B Lab, which did not analyze what we say, but what we do and how we truly work across five key areas: governance, workers, community, environment, and customers. What exactly does it mean to be a B Corp? B Lab is the independent organization that audits companies seeking B Corp certification. Their assessment is not limited to a single product or a one-off campaign, but the entire company: How we treat our team. How we relate to suppliers and the community. What real impact we have on the environment. How we govern ourselves from within. To become certified, it is necessary to achieve a minimum of 80 points out of 200. Worldwide, there are more than 9,500 B Corp companies spread across more than 100 countries. A fairly small group when compared to the millions of existing companies. And from now on, be levels is part of it. What this means for us We aren't just raising the level of our products. We are raising the level of how we do things internally. This certification is objective proof of something we have wanted to do from day one: things done well, not just sold well. In a sector where everyone talks about wellness and health, we now have external evidence that proves we live by those values internally as well. A product certification approves the ingredient. B Corp validates the ethics and the decision to use it. The facts, area by area B Corp does not evaluate intentions, it evaluates verified facts. This is what is currently real at be levels: Governance: Annual external audit of our financial statements. Formalized code of ethics, with mandatory training for the board of directors, managers, and every new hire. Bylaws modified so that decisions take into account all stakeholders, not just shareholders. Verified traceability of our ingredients and a transparent pricing policy aligned with these principles. Workers: Health coverage for more than 95% of the staff, with supplementary dental and medical insurance. 90% internal team satisfaction. Paid parental leave of 13 to 18 weeks for the primary caregiver. Flexible hours and genuine remote work, in addition to benefits like sports activities, company products, and flexible compensation. Community: More than 60% of our supplier spending is local, and more than 80% of purchases remain within our own country. The average relationship with our suppliers exceeds 36 months. Job growth at be levels has exceeded 25%. Environment: We have achieved our zero-waste goal in operations. We have actively reduced packaging materials over the last two years, incorporating certified materials. We have verified that our supply chain has no negative impact on biodiversity. Customers: Third-party quality certifications and warranties on all our products. More than 75% of our suppliers undergo quality control review. Public privacy policy so you always know what data we collect and what we use it for. A company, not a product B Corp does not certify a formula or a specific line. It certifies be levels as a complete company. Therefore, this milestone is an endorsement of the entire brand, and the way we make decisions every day. As B Lab says: B Corp does not certify a product, it certifies the company behind the product. What now? This certification does not close a chapter. In three years, we will go through the same audit again, so what we are sharing today is not a one-time achievement, but a way of working that we must sustain over time. The core of what we do does not change: science, efficacy, and trust in every product we place in your hands. Being a B Corp is confirmation that those same values also govern how we manage be levels from the inside. It’s not a new message, it is proof of one we have been sharing for years. Thank you for joining us and helping us improve every day.
