Davide Bollati, president of Davines, founding member of the B Corp Beauty Coalition, said: "As Certified B Corporations meeting the highest standards of social and environmental impact, we have become increasingly uncomfortable with the social and environmental footprint of the beauty industry and concluded our  respective solo efforts to enable positive change can be enhanced through a partnership of mutual commitment.  So, we have decided to form a coalition to leverage our combined strengths and deliver tangible benefits to beauty  customers, communities, and the planet we share."

Shaun Russell, founder of Skandinavisk, and a co-founding member of the B Corp Beauty Coalition, said: "Specifically, we commit to invest our time and efforts to improve four key issues that affect everyone and everything: ingredient sourcing and sustainability; greener logistics; packaging responsibility; consistent and clear external  messaging that customers can understand and trust. Work has already started, and we will be welcoming more  certified B Corps to add their talent and contribution as we gather momentum."
