What does B Corp certification mean for Ocean? Te oranga o te tāngata, he whenua, he moana  Our wellbeing is drawn from the land and the sea At Ocean, we’ve always believed our work should create a positive impact. For tāngata (people), for whenua (land), for te taiao (nature). B Corp certification was a long-term goal of ours. Not because it marks a shift, but because it reflects our whakapapa as an organisation and where we’re heading in the future. And becoming a B Corp is tangible proof of the effort we take to ensure that we’re acting in the most responsible way possible. We attained a 85.4 rating score across the five B Corp assessment criteria:  governance, workers, community, environment and customers.
