B Corp Certification

What is B Corp?
B Corp is a global certification that recognises companies that meet high standards of social and environmental impact. To become certified, businesses must meet benchmarks for transparency, accountability and social and environmental performance. As a certified B Corp, we are part of a global movement of companies working to create a more inclusive, sustainable, and ethical future.
Our Journey to B Corp Certification
Guided by our four impact areas, Sustainability, Equality & Community, Environment, and Ethical Partnerships, we’ve been actively implementing initiatives that drive positive change across every part of our business. Each year, we build upon and launch programs, tools and processes that put the planet, people and our community first.
How We Got Here
Lower Impact Materials
30% (and growing) of our New Arrivals are made with certified lower-impact materials. To help make sustainable materials the easiest and most accessible choice, we’ve created the Princess Polly Fabric Hub for our suppliers, plus, the Materials Matrix for our Design and Buying teams. Find more information about these initiatives in our 2024 Impact Report.
Pathway to Parenthood
We are committed to going above and beyond to foster a culture of care and support at Princess Polly. Our team members are supported throughout their family planning and parental journeys, with paid reproductive health and parental leave, flexible work options, continued super and return-to-work support.
Quality Assurance
Perfecting our products doesn’t just start and end at production. We go a step further and include real customer reviews and feedback and take this directly to our suppliers to provide them with as much support and information as possible.
Environmental Supply Chain Engagement
We work closely with our supply chain team to develop shared environmental targets and roadmaps to success. Together we have obtained tangible data to measure progress and have since reduced carbon emissions, waste production and the use of chemicals.
Ethical Partnerships
Our award-winning 5 A’s of Ethical Sourcing framework drives long-term, values-based partnerships with suppliers, and sets the bar for how we do business. Not only does this framework drive incentive for ethical performance, it is a training resource for all team members both within our supply chain and beyond.
The Road Ahead
Our mission to make on-trend fashion sustainable and accessible remains at the core of everything we do. As a proud B Corp business, we have a detailed evaluation of our progress and can use these insights to drive us forward.
