ISO 14067: Carbon Footprint of Products
ISO 14067 is an internationally recognized standard focused on the carbon footprint of products. It sets the framework for quantifying and reporting the carbon footprint of a product, in a manner consistent with international life cycle assessment (LCA) standards (ISO 14040 & ISO 14044).
The standard enables organizations to evaluate the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with a product throughout its life cycle supporting transparency and sustainability in product development and supply chains.
Key aspects
- Carbon Footprint Quantification: The standard provides methodologies for calculating the carbon footprint of products, covering all stages of the product life cycle from raw material acquisition to final disposal.
- Transparency and Reliability: ISO 14067 emphasizes transparency and reliability in carbon footprint reporting, allowing stakeholders, such as investors, customers and regulators, to trust the reported data.
- Verification Process: The standard supports a verification process conducted by independent third parties to confirm the accuracy and completeness of carbon footprint inventories.
Applicability
The verification is applicable to a wide range of organizations and industries, especially for:
- Companies seeking to enhance the accuracy and reliability of their carbon footprint reporting.
- Organizations committed to sustainability and environmental responsibility.
- Entities required by law or regulation to submit carbon footprint verification.
- Those who aim to demonstrate transparency in their environmental footprint.
