With its recent B Corp certification, Urbidermis, a global leader in street furniture, proves that it not only designs sustainable products, but also fully embraces ethical business practices, social responsibility, and a minimal environmental footprint as a company.

As the first in its sector worldwide, Urbidermis positions itself as a trusted partner for anyone aiming to shape resilient and sustainable cities.

What is B Corp?

B Corp is one of the world’s leading certifications for companies committed to people, planet, and social progress. Unlike traditional labels, it looks at the company as a whole: from how it treats employees to how it manages natural resources.

What makes B Corp unique is its focus on companies that put positive impact at the core of their business model. Certified organizations are evaluated on their:

• environmental performance,

• social responsibility,

transparant

• and ethical governance.

More than a label, B Corp represents a global movement building a regenerative and inclusive economy.




Why B Corp matters for sustainable and circular urban design

B Corp goes beyond product certifications like FSC or Cradle to Cradle. It assesses the entire business model, including its impact on people, the environment, and society. For sustainable urban projects, this means collaborating with partners who integrate responsibility into every level of their operations.

More and more cities prioritize B Corp criteria in their procurement policies to help achieve their climate neutrality, social equity, and sustainable urban planning goals.
