We are proud to announce that Rip Curl - the Ultimate Surfing Company - is now a B Corp Certified Corporation (B Corp). With this news, we join a global community of businesses who are driving accountability for their impact on people, planet, and community.
The B Corp certification is a reflection of Rip Curl’s commitment to balancing profit with the organisation’s impact on the ocean and beaches that are central to the surfing way of life, along with the people who make up the wider community. We have bold ESG targets and the B Corp certification is a stamp of independent approval that Rip Curl is meeting stringent standards for positive social and environmental impact.
The certification is a significant achievement for Rip Curl, recognising the hard work undertaken to hit this milestone. Included in the certification is the brand’s wetsuit factory in Thailand, as well as its owned operations based around the world, including USA, Canada, Europe, Japan, Indonesia, Brazil, New Zealand, and Australia.
Legendary 3x World Surfing Champion, Mick Fanning, is stoked to be on board with Rip Curl as the company levels up.
“I am proud to represent a brand that believes in doing its part to protect the environment, support our communities, and is committed to using business as a force for good,” Fanning said.
WHAT IS B-CORP?
B Corps are for-profit organisations whose performance is measured across five impact areas: governance, workers, customers, community, environment. Companies must document their positive impact to apply using the B Impact Assessment tool, and undergo an independent verification process every three years to achieve and maintain certification.
