Team Original Duckhead's Favourite B Corp Brands

To celebrate our one year certification anniversary and B Corp month, we asked our team to share their favourite B Corp brands (apart from us, obviously).


At Original Duckhead, we've always believed that the things you reach for every day should do more than just work well — they should do good too. From our umbrellas made from post-consumer recycled plastic, to our commitment to ethical manufacturing, every choice we make is guided by one simple question: is this better for people and the planet?


We're proud to be one of the only umbrella brands in the world to become a B Corp — certified with an impact score of 88.4, because even everyday objects can be made with extraordinary care.


Now for the good bit — here are some of the brands proving that how you make something matters just as much as what you make. Shoutout to some of our favourite fellow B Corps.

 

Different industries. Same commitment. Proof that profit and purpose aren't opposites — they're partners.

Finisterre

ManiLife

 

ManiLife take peanut butter as seriously as craft beer people take hops. Small-batch, single-origin, meticulously blended. This is a food nerd's peanut butter.

ManiLife is a premium UK-based peanut butter brand known for its ethically sourced, single-estate high-oleic peanuts from Argentina and small-batch production. Founded in 2015, they specialize in deep-roasted, intense flavors without palm oil or added sugar, offering smooth and crunchy varieties that are often lauded for a "drippy" texture.

"B Corp to us is the right way to build and run our business, from sourcing to our people, balancing profit with impact. Always Like No Other!"

 

Aesop

 

 

 

Aesop is a luxury Australian skincare brand established in Melbourne in 1987 by Dennis Paphitis, renowned for its minimalist aesthetic, high-quality formulations, and unique, architecturally designed stores. Combining plant-based and laboratory-made ingredients, Aesop offers skin, hair, and body care with a focus on efficacy and sustainability.

 

"Being a B Corporation is both a reaffirmation of the values that have guided us since our beginnings—and a reminder of the work that still lies ahead."

 

Tony's Chocolonely

 

Tony's Chocolonely a mission-driven Dutch chocolate brand founded in 2005 to make all chocolate 100% slave-free, tackling child labor and exploitation in cocoa supply chains, particularly in Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire.
