The comprehensive B Corp certification is holistic proof that we take a high level of social and environmental responsibility, that we show transparency in what we do, and that we are legally obliged to deliver a positive impact for all stakeholders. We are committed to running our business in a way that promotes positive change.
By complying with the high requirements for achieving B Corp certification, Rosendahl Design Group actively participates in a global community of companies working towards a more sustainable and responsible future.
Our corporate goals extend beyond making beautiful and innovative design products. Responsibility is a core value for us, and we are committed to ensuring we have a positive impact on our society and the environment. We are more than just a design company; we are part of the world!
With B Corp certification, we will continue to make a change for the better, to make responsible choices and live up to our promises.
Much more than just high-quality design
The B Corp certification confirms our commitment to doing business in a way that balances profit with a broader purpose.

The B Corp certification represents an important milestone for Rosendahl Design Group and demonstrates our commitment to responsible business operations and social responsibility. Right from the beginning, my father founded and ran the company based on the principles of decency, good business acumen and a vision to make durable quality design for the mass market. This remains a fundamental building block for us, and we continue to stay true to our values and to act responsibly.
We are now standing on the shoulders of this legacy, looking to the future. We’ve always said that it’s about being able to look yourself and others in the eye. And that's still the case. Our B Corp certification is not only a recognition of how far we have come, but also a commitment to continue to do business in a way that takes responsibility for our impact on society and the environment.
We will continue to deliver quality design, but we will also be a driving force and inspiration for positive change.
- Henrik Rosendahl, Owner & CEO
We operate our business responsibly and we believe that transparency is key to a trusting relationship with our customers. That’s why we openly share our social and environmental performance and goals on our journey towards achieving even higher standards of responsibility.
We believe that good design should not only be aesthetically pleasing, but also functional and durable. It is our goal and commitment to develop and preserve Danish design icons – and to make durable quality design that is widely accessible. We make designs that can be passed down through generations.
We also see it as our responsibility to lead the way when it comes to developing and renewing Danish design traditions, so that our designs also play an important role for future generations. We strive to uncover and minimize our carbon footprint in all our activities. However, our footprint on the world is about much more than the materials we use, and so our commitment includes both responsible business conduct, environmental responsibility, and a value-creating workplace for our employees – both our own and everyone in our value chain.
This approach to responsibility is one of the reasons why we strived to become B Corp certified. By having this certification, we as a
company are part of the driving force behind positive social change. It also reflects our ambition to bring Danish design traditions into the future responsibly.
Our design philosophy is deeply rooted in the principles of functionality, aesthetics, and responsibility. We take pride in making beautiful and durable quality products that not only tell their own story but are also part of a bigger narrative of change, and which respect the world around us. From the smallest details to the biggest concepts, we strive to make
products that not only enrich your surroundings, but also carry the design heritage of quality design responsibly into the future.
