Increase credibility by using the “Product Carbon Footprint” and “Carbon Footprint Reduced” claim verifications from SGS Green Marks.

The SGS Green Marks program now includes two new offerings from SGS: Carbon Footprint Reduced and Product Carbon Footprint. A crucial measurment of greenhouse gas emissions and removals within a product’s life cycle is its product carbon footprint, or PCF.SGS Green Marks Program Carbon Footprint Reduced, PCF the volt post

SGS Green Marks are now advantageous to brands, manufacturers, suppliers, and retailers because they:

  • Ensure PCF information is transparent and generated in compliance with the relevant standards and methodologies
  • Mitigate the risk of greenwashing or reputational damage
  • Support the accurate communication of environmental performance to stakeholders
  • Differentiate a product from competitors
  • Provide global recognition that claims are verified by SGS

A PCF calculation report must be submitted by organizations before a product can qualify for an SGS Green Mark. The PCF is subsequently subjected to a thorough evaluation by SGS after the ISO 14064-3 verification procedure. This attests to the fact that the PCF was created utilizing a life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology in compliance with either the global standard ISO 14067:2018 or the product standard released by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.SGS Green Marks Program Carbon Footprint Reduced, PCF 1

“Making claims is easy, substantiating them is not. SGS Green Marks enable organizations to demonstrate their product’s environmental attributes. Ultimately, it enables a growing tide of environmentally conscious consumers to be better informed on the impacts of their purchases and to make greener choices.”
