Untouched World

Tomorrow B Lab are hosting a breakfast event at the Untouched World Kitchen. Come and hear a range of local B Corps discuss how they are using their business to drive greater positive impact for their workers, communities, and the environment. We'll hear real examples from B Corps who are doing the work, and have a chance to meet and mingle with local B Corps and the B Lab Australia New Zealand team as well. Our very own Peri is even on the panel! This event is open to all, whether you're a newly minted B Corp, one of the 'early adopters', already on the path to certification, or just B Corp/impact curious and want to learn more. The awesome Ozone Coffee will be keeping everyone caffeinated, we'd love to see you there! https://lnkd.in/gsH9A6-X

We had an amazing evening catching up with our Auckland community at our B Corp event last week. We worked with Ensemble to bring together like-minded brands and celebrate the luxury and variety available under the B Corp banner. It was so great to meet everyone and share our space with such beautiful brands! All made better by having a glass of cold-brew negroni in hand, courtesy of Ozone coffee... we hope you all had as much fun as we did! Thank you to everyone who made it, and to the wonderful brands for taking part: Ensemble Magazine (NZ) Aleph Beauty Almighty Bennetto Natural Foods co Blue Frog Breakfast BLUNT Deadly Ponies Deep Down Wines Lucy Slight Monarc Jewellery Ozone Coffee Pals Pic's Peanut Butter Raglan Food Co Sawmill Brewing Company Photos by Danni Bishara for Ensemble Magazine (NZ) #BCorpMonth #GenB B Lab Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand

To achieve industry-leading sustainable production, we consider the entire lifecycle of our garments. There are a few aspects that make this possible, having full visibility of our supply chain, designing everything in-house and making 94% of it here in New Zealand. 80% of a garment’s impact is determined at the design stage, so to really understand how we create garments with minimal impact, we caught up with our amazing design team.

It’s almost inescapable, with a new year comes an itch to clear out and reset. A massive $3.1bn of unused clothes is languishing in New Zealand wardrobes, causing its owners stress and overwhelm – and costing an average of $800 per wardrobe - so why not embrace the lure of the clear-out and stride into the new year with a purposeful, sustainable capsule wardrobe?⁠ ⁠ Read more on our journal https://bit.ly/4aHie2c
