NUOC es la primera marca española de botellas reutilizables de vidrio. EN NUOC CREEMOS EN UN DISEÑO RESPONSABLE, SOSTENIBLE Y SOLIDARIO:
NUOC nació en 2016 con el fin de ser la alternativa perfecta al uso irresponsable de botellas de plástico de un solo uso, que en su gran parte terminan en el Mar, y de apoyar proyectos que luchan por conseguir que los lugares más desfavorecidos del Mundo tengan acceso a agua potable, porque ¡sin agua no hay vida!. NUOC dona el 10% de los beneficios de su colección Live, Love, Save para ayudar a resolver la crisis mundial del agua, creando pozos y dando acceso a agua potable en las zonas más remotas de Kenia.
“Son ya muchos viajes y países recorridos en los que lamentablemente hemos visto que un hábito tan natural como beber agua crea grandes cantidades de residuos plásticos que, en gran parte, terminan inundando nuestros océanos”. Nuestro viaje por Vietnam en 2015 y la gran cantidad de botellas de plástico que encontramos tiradas a cada paso fue nuestro punto de inflexión. Así nació NUOC (agua en Vietnamita). Con sede en San Sebastián, la marca NUOC se presenta al mundo como una marca

NUOC is the first Spanish brand of reusable glass bottles. AT NUOC WE BELIEVE IN A RESPONSIBLE, SUSTAINABLE AND CARING DESIGN:

Impact Area Scoresinfo_outline

info_outlineOverall B Impact Score

To certify as a B Corp, a company must achieve a minimum verified score of 80 points on the B Impact Assessment. The B Impact Assessment asks questions about how the day-to-day operations of a company create positive impact for the company’s workers, community, and environment. Additionally, companies can earn further points if their overall business model can be shown to create positive social and environmental impact as well, qualifying the company for specific Impact Business Model points.

Scores for Certified B Corporations are verified by the non-profit B Lab.

info_outlineImpact Area Scores

The questions in the B Impact Assessment are organized into five Impact Areas: Governance, Workers, Community, Environment, and Customers. Click into a Impact Area to see topics covered in each. Topics in blue are Impact Business Models associated with that Impact Area where the company has earned additional credit. Due to rounding, displayed totals may not add up exactly.

The B Impact Assessment is customized to a company's size, sector, and geographic market.  However, within those parameters, there are still questions included in the B Impact Assessment that might not be relevant to a particular company. In cases where a question is not applicable, the potential points available for that question are instead earned based on the performance of the company on the other topics relevant to the stakeholder and summed up as "N/A points." Likewise, a score of N/A for Workers means that the company is a sole proprietor or partnership with no full-time staff, and a score of 0 or N/A for Customers means that the company does not have a specific Customer-focused Impact Business Model.

Each year, B Lab releases lists honoring the top-performing Certified B Corps in each Impact Area and overall, broken down by size, on the annual Best for the World lists.

info_outlineAdditional Documentation

B Lab may determine that a company should make additional material beyond their B Impact Report transparent in order for the public to be able to evaluate the company’s overall impact. This additional transparency may cover participation in a controversial industry, information shared on the company’s Disclosure Questionnaire, or simply a company’s relationship to a larger complex entity. Public companies and wholly-owned subsidiaries are required to make their full B Impact Assessments transparent to achieve B Corp Certification.
