We are B Corp Certified!

We are proud to announce that Deskeo is joining the great community of B Corp Certified companies! This certification is a testament to our commitment to responsible social and environmental practices.

It represents a key step in our approach to transforming the office real estate sector, in favour of a more inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.

What is B Corp Certification?

The B Corp label is awarded to companies that meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. It's a global movement that brings together businesses committed to using their economic impact as a force for positive change.

To earn this certification, companies must undergo a rigorous audit that evaluates all their practices, from governance to human resources management, including their environmental and societal impact. More than just a label, B Corp is a recognition of the constant efforts of companies to contribute to a more responsible and sustainable economy.

Why did Deskeo choose to become B Corp?

At Deskeo, our decision to become a B Corp Certified company stems from our deep desire to have a positive and lasting impact. As a purpose-driven company, we have always been guided by strong values: environmental responsibility, transparency, ethics, equality, sustainability, and leadership in change.

Joining this global movement was an obvious choice for us. With B Corp, we sought to act more concretely and transparently, whilst challenging ourselves to go even further. True to our value “Sufficient Is Not Enough”, our ambition is not only to do better, but to constantly improve our practices. This also involves bringing together all our stakeholders – employees, clients, partners – to engage them in this positive dynamic.

In practice, we have taken strong measures to achieve our goals.

Some key figures:

• 100% of our carpets are recycled;
• Reduction of 15% in our energy consumption between 2023 and 2024;
• 25% of the total value of our purchases comes from certified suppliers;
• More than 60% of our suppliers have signed an ethical code of conduct;
• Over 80% of our purchases are made from companies based in France;
• More than 50% of our purchases are made from companies located in Île-de-France;
• An average of 36 months of collaboration with our suppliers.

Our vision for the future: continuing our commitment

Frank Zorn, CEO of Deskeo, himself points out: "B Corp certification is not an end, but a starting point. It confers on us the status of ambassador and commits us to a continuous improvement approach. And this is just the beginning! We have already set ambitious goals for the next 3 years: reducing our carbon footprint, improving our recycling practices and responsible consumption, raising awareness among our clients about environmentally-friendly actions. Being a B Corp company doesn't mean being the best, but always striving to improve. It is a commitment to always aim higher, and it bodes well for the future of corporate real estate!"

We would like to warmly thank our collaborators, investors and partners. Your support has made this certification possible, and it is together that we have been working since the beginning towards a more sustainable business model. Thanks to you, all this has been able to come to fruition, and for this, we are deeply grateful.
