At Unscented Co., being a B Corp is more than a label — it’s what drives us, defines us, and guides us in every part of our business. Years of hard work and unwavering dedication have once again paid off, earning us a remarkable new B Corp score of 101.7.

 

Sure, 101.7 might seem like a radio station frequency. But to us, it’s the sound of progress — the collective heartbeat of a company committed to balancing performance with purpose. Every fraction of that score is a testament to the dedication, integrity, and passion of our entire community as we continuously evolve and set new standards for environmentally sustainable business practices that benefit people and the planet. 

Recertification: A challenge worth taking

Getting recertified as a B Corp is no easy feat. It’s a rigorous process that demands time, precision, and thoughtful self-reflection to fine-tune every detail and achieve true alignment with our values.

Every three years, B Lab, the nonprofit behind B Corp certification, closely examines our practices to ensure we’re not just maintaining high standards but continuously improving. There’s no resting on our laurels — only pushing forward. 

The actions behind the impact

Numbers don’t tell the whole story, but they do offer a clear snapshot of the concrete actions we’ve taken — and, more importantly, sustained over the years. Here’s a quick look at the key factors that earned us our B Corp recertification for the third time:

  • 76.7% of our products are certified Manufactured in Québec.
  • 80% of our products are made in Canada.
  • 11.6% of our purchases come from women-owned businesses.
  • Every product we offer is either refillable or has a solid, plastic-free alternative.
  • Each year, we actively support organizations like Share the Warmth, making an impact beyond our products.
  • We hold Leaping Bunny certification, demonstrating our commitment to ensuring our products have never been tested on animals.

More than a score — a shared success

For us, this 101.7 is a well-earned reminder that we’re on the right track. It’s proof that doing business differently isn’t just possible — it’s powerful. Together, we can blaze a new path that prioritizes profitability for everyone: the planet, the community, you, me. And that’s something we’re truly proud of. 

As thrilled as we are about our latest B Corp score and everything it signifies, we didn’t get here alone. This achievement belongs to our entire ecosystem — our incredible partners, customers, and community members who believe in our mission, share our values, and elevate our purpose with their passion and dedication every single day. 

So, the next time you refill your hand soap or dish soap, remember: it’s more than just a simple routine. Every bottle is filled with our shared commitment and brimming with positive impact. 

101.7 times thank you for being part of this journey with us!
