Opella Redefines Leadership in Self-Care by Obtaining Global B Corp Certification

 

This certification follows a comprehensive transformation process spanning four years. During this period, Opella redefined its approach to sustainability, innovation and governance across all countries where it operates. The company demonstrated strong performance in climate action, product sustainability, community health and leadership-level accountability.

 

"Holding B Corp certification globally is our first step on our sustainability journey. This achievement is the result of the dedicated work of 11,000 Opella employees worldwide, along with the contributions of our customers and consumers. For us, this certification represents a commitment to proving that business success and sustainability can and must go hand in hand."

 

"This recognition reflects the vision that drives us forward. The certification process was a powerful catalyst that accelerated our sustainability transformation, triggered innovation and mobilized our teams. This process serves as a reference point on a global scale. We are determined to lead by translating high standards into daily practices. And this is just the beginning."

 

"B Corp certification marks the beginning of our journey to deepen our commitment to environmental stewardship. At Opella, we believe our mission of "Health Is in Your Hands" is inseparable from our responsibility to care for the planet. Sustainability is not a side initiative—it is a fundamental part of who we are and what we do. We cannot deliver health without respecting the planet, because true wellbeing begins with a thriving world."

 

Since 2019, Opella has achieved a 64% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions. More than 93% of its electricity needs are met from renewable sources. As of 2024, 97% of its paper-based packaging is made from certified or recycled materials. Since 2022, local community programs conducted with non-governmental organizations have directly benefited over 1 million people. Health awareness and conscious medicine use campaigns conducted in 2024 alone reached 129 million people.

 

Opella continues to be part of a community pioneering transformation in this field by inviting more self-care players to join this responsibility journey. The company views B Corp certification not merely as a milestone but as a dynamic framework supporting continuous improvement. Through its commitment to regular recertification, it will continue to maintain focus on a healthy society and planet with innovative, inclusive and scalable solutions.
