Lumene Group Achieves Certified B Corporation (B Corp) Accreditation

As the first beauty company in Finland to achieve B Corp Certification, the beauty company stands alongside six other certified B Corps in the country.

Lumene Group is now a Certified B Corporation (B Corp). As the first beauty company in Finland to achieve B Corp Certification, the beauty company stands alongside only six other certified B Corps in the country.

Certified B Corporations, or B Corps, are companies verified by B Lab to meet standards of social and environmental performance and to have made a public commitment to stakeholder governance.

Two of the three Lumene Group brands—Lumene and Cutrin—are now B Corp certified. In the future, the Group aims to achieve full certification, including its newly acquired brand, Ida Warg Beauty.

“We at Lumene Group believe that businesses have an important role to play in supporting our environment and society. B Corp Certification amplifies our commitment to delivering tangible positive outcomes for all our stakeholders. We are proud of this milestone on our journey to build Lumene Group as the next big export success from Finland and even more excited about the journey ahead. Building on over 20 years of committed sustainability efforts by our teams, we are now ready to take a leading role in showing the world how circular beauty can catalyse positive change”, said Adrian Innergård, CEO at Lumene Group.

Pioneering Circular Beauty

The B Corp certification process evaluates every aspect of a business’s operations, focusing on five key impact areas: Governance, Workers, Community, Environment and Customers. To achieve this certification, companies must score over 80 points and be verified by an independent, third-party analyst to demonstrate their responsible practices in areas like energy use, waste management, water consumption, diversity, ethics, and corporate transparency.

Lumene Group has achieved a score of 84.5 on their verified B Corp Assessment.

More than 20 years ago, Lumene Group launched its first upcycled ingredient.
