At DRPG, we have been on an extensive 17-year sustainability journey, starting back in the early 2000s attaining accreditations such as the BSI Standards, ISO20121, and ISO 14001. We’ve seen many accreditations come… and some go!
With over 400 team members spread across the UK, US and Germany, it is important that messaging around sustainability remains clear, consistent and true to our values and mission which is to drive positive change for our clients, colleagues and communities. To avoid any greenwashing and breaking of the green claims code, we use industry standards to help us stay accountable for the work we do towards people, planet and profit. We were the first agency to attain The Queens Award for Sustainable Development and we have just received word of maintaining Investors In People Platinum status.
I am passionate about sustainability and was fortunate enough to be one of those who made the NetZero pledge at COP26 in Glasgow last year. All this hard work has led us towards attaining B Corp Certification in October 2023. We’re looking forward to diving into the B Corp community alongside other purpose-driven companies around the area, driving towards positive change and a brighter, fairer future.
