Additional Lengths Ltd, the group behind professional hair extensions brand Remi Cachet, has become a Certified B Corporation™. Respect indeed. This certification is mighty challenging to achieve, and the recognition marks an important milestone in this company’s commitment to responsible business practices. The certification applies across the entire Additional Lengths Ltd group, including Remi Cachet, Additional Lengths and Qute.
B Corp demystified
Certified B Corporations™ are businesses verified by B Lab as meeting standards for social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability. For Additional Lengths Ltd, this meant undergoing a rigorous, independent assessment across how the business operates. Everything was subject to scrutiny, from governance and people to ethics, environmental impact and customer trust.
In an industry where sustainability and ethics are often self-declared, B Corp™ certification offers independent verification. In simple terms, it means the business isn’t marking its own homework.
A brand to celebrate
Taking about this fabulous statement on her brand, founder of Remi Cachet, Victoria Lynch, says:
“As the UK market leader, we have a responsibility to lead by example. Becoming a Certified B Corp business is a powerful, independent validation of the ethics, care and integrity behind Remi Cachet. This isn’t about ticking boxes, it’s about raising standards and proving that luxury hair extensions and responsible business can, and should, go hand in hand.
“Anyone can say the right things, but B Corp certification means we’re not marking our own homework. As the UK market leader, it’s important to us that our values, supply chains & practices are independently verified, giving salons, stylists and clients confidence not just in the quality of our extensions, but in where they come from and how they’re produced.”
Pride in service giving
Globally, fewer than 40% of businesses that apply achieve B Corp™ certification, and only around 10,000 companies worldwide currently meet the standard, making certification a meaningful marker of accountability and long-term commitment.
For Remi Cachet and the wider Additional Lengths Ltd group, becoming a Certified B Corporation™ is not the end of the journey. It represents an ongoing commitment to continuous improvement, strengthening trust with salons, stylists and consumers, and contributing to a more responsible future for the hair and beauty industry.
