Nottingham-based Eight Days A Week Print Solutions (EDWPS) has revealed it has achieved B Corp Certification.
Being a B Corp in the direct mail and digital print industry, the company says it is counted amongst businesses leading a global movement for an “inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy”.
Having begun the process in February 2022, EDWPS underwent a substantial and rigorous assessment and review period with its already established ISO accreditations and being carbon neutral making the process simpler.
EDWPS holds ISO 9001, 14001, 27001, and 45001 for quality, environmental, information security, and health and safety respectively.
The B Corp Certification was confirmed on October 2nd, 2023, with the company now amongst 1,500 UK businesses to have the certification. This certification also includes EDWPS’ subsidiary business Eight Plus which was launched in March this year.
Lance Hill, managing director of EDWPS and Eight Plus, says going for B Corp Certification was the next logical step on the company’s journey around social, environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
Hill describes the achievement as “an incredibly proud moment for us on top of many other achievements over the last three or four years where we have continually pushed the business forward to be best in class, which has always been my ambition”.
“All our certifications form the backbone of our business and will continue to do so going forward,” he continues. “We will never rest in our laurels or be complacent as continual improvement is what differentiates us and it is what our clients expect to see, or even demand.”
