Carnegie becomes Certified B Corporation

Carnegie, Rockville Centre, N.Y., has passed a rigorous third party assessment performed by the nonprofit organization B Lab to become the first textile and wall covering company to become a Certified B Corporation. The designation means the company meets rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency. Carnegie joins such companies as Patagonia, Seventh Generation, Method and Ben & Jerry’s. “Becoming a Certified B Corporation was a natural step for Carnegie. We have always believed that our business has a higher social and environmental responsibility beyond simply profit,” said Cliff Goldman, president of Carnegie. “The well-being of our employees, clients and planet have always been part of our mission.”
