A year in review Economic / Governance Environment Social Appendix Governance & business conduct / ethics / transparency Collaboration is essential to delivering on our bold ambitions and promoting transparency. We engage with a broad range of external partnerships and initiatives from the entire ESG spectrum, helping us accelerate our progress. In 2020, we started our journey of becoming a certified B Corporation (B Corp) company. This means we will need to meet the highest standards of verified performance, public transparency and legal accountability.

We otherwise pursue transparency through the full scope of our activities, from the communication of financial information and performance, product information, our corporate social and environmental impact, workforce demographics and data, information on our supply chain and on charitable partners.
