Lakes managing director, Mike Gahir, said “We are thrilled to have achieved B Corp certification at Lakes. Getting to this point has take a sustained effort from everyone at the company as we work together to ensure that Lakes is hitting the highest standards across the board.

“This achievement is a reflection of who we are and how we do business, with honesty, transparency and accountability for our people, our community and the environment.

“The fact we are the first bathroom manufacturer in the world to achieve this is even more rewarding and an example of the forward thinking, innovative team we have here. Achieving B Corp status is not an end for us, it’s the start of a continued journey of excellence.”
