Utilize has achieved B-Corp certification, joining a cohort of companies putting equal weight behind profit and purpose.
B Lab, the not-for-profit behind B Corp, awarded Utilize the certification for proving high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency.
MD Guy Hocking said: “This reflects our increasing commitment to sustainability, social responsibility, and the collective hard work of our teams.
“Together, we continue to make a positive impact on our planet, community and our people, and this certification is a testament to that.”
Utilize attributes this success to its dedicated Sustainability Committee, a team of six that spent 18 months working through the certification.
Lucy Johnson, a member of the Sustainability Committee, said: ““It has taken an immense amount of dedication and effort from our entire team. The rigorous standards we must meet aren’t easily attained.”
