Brief Description

ISO 14067 is an internationally recognized Standard that focuses on the carbon footprint of products. It provides businesses with guidelines for the quantification and reporting of the Carbon Footprint of a Product (CFP), covering the entire life cycle of the product.

Detailed description

ISO 14067 sets out the fundamental principles for the accurate measurement, reporting, and verification of a product’s carbon footprint throughout its entire life cycle. Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), it enhances the credibility of carbon footprint data by ensuring accuracy, completeness, and alignment with international standards, such as ISO 14025 (environmental labels).

Key features of ISO 14067 include:

• Provision of a comprehensive methodology for calculating the carbon footprint of products, considering all stages of the life cycle, from raw material acquisition to end-of-life disposal.
• Emphasis on transparency and reliability in carbon footprint reporting.
• Support for third-party verification processes, conducted by independent bodies such as TÜV Austria Hellas, to confirm the accuracy and completeness of carbon footprint inventories.

What is the Certification procedure?

Who is it for?

Verification in accordance with ISO 14067 is applicable to a wide range of businesses. More specifically, it is particularly suitable for:

• Companies seeking to identify and reduce the carbon footprint of their products
• Companies aiming to enhance the accuracy and transparency of their product carbon footprint reporting
• Companies committed to sustainability and environmental responsibility, or those aligned with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 13
• Companies subject to legal or regulatory obligations to provide verified carbon footprint data

What are the benefits of verification?

• Reliable Carbon Footprint Reporting: ISO 14067 enables companies to provide accurate and transparent information regarding the carbon footprint of their products, thereby strengthening stakeholder trust.
• Cost Reduction: The ISO 14067 adopts a life cycle approach, from raw material extraction to end-of-life disposal. This comprehensive methodology allows companies to identify ‘’carbon hotspot areas’’, leading to more efficient resource use and potential cost savings.
• Environmental Responsibility: Businesses can demonstrate their action on climate change and highlight their environmental commitment, gaining a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
• Regulatory Compliance: Verification in accordance with ISO 14067 ensures compliance with legal requirements related to carbon footprint disclosure.
