A Cornwall house developer has been awarded B Corporation certification after taking the lead on bringing sustainable new build homes and commercial developments to the Duchy.

Truro-based Treveth launched four years ago and has become one of the first developers in the 海角视频 to achieve the certification. Businesses that are certified B Corps meet the highest standard of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.

Tim Mulholland, managing director at Treveth, commented: “We’re delighted to announce that we are among just a handful of 海角视频 developers that have achieved the B Corp certification. Furthermore, we believe Treveth is the first local authority owned company to achieve B Corp status. This highly regarded certification is an acknowledgement of our company’s strong environmental and social ethos and our brilliant team, who work really hard to bring these values to life across all our activities.”

Managed by B Lab, the internationally recognised certification process measures a company’s entire impact across five key areas of Governance, Workers, Community, Environment, and Customers. It also verifies socially and environmentally responsible practice from energy, water and waste to diversity, transparency and staff support policies.

Operating under a ‘Profit with Purpose’ ethos, Treveth develops new build homes, sustainable communities, and commercial developments in partnership with Cornwall Council to benefit people who live and work in Cornwall.

The next step in Treveth’s carbon neutrality journey is to look at the provision of smart grids that will enable the use of renewable energy opportunities on Treveth’s sites to be maximised. For larger scale developments, Treveth is in the process of developing alternative renewable strategies that take advantage of Cornwall’s natural geology to provide decarbonised heat.

The Cornish developer is also in the process of having its first carbon inventory developed which will identify measurable targets for further annual reductions.
