The Greenhouse
Gas Protocol
GHG Protocol - Product Standard
The GHG Protocol for Product Footprint is a globally applicable approach for measuring and reporting emissions in all industries. The Product Standard enables companies to evaluate the complete life cycle of a product, from sourcing of raw materials to final disposal, which helps in identifying opportunities for substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. This improves product design and efficiency while meeting customer expectations for environmental information and facilitating effective communication of a product's environmental impact.

Organization for Standardization
ISO 14067
ISO 14067, an international standard, helps companies evaluate the environmental impact of their products throughout their entire life cycle. It supports Sustainable Development Goal 13 in the UNGC's Agenda 2030, which specifically targets greenhouse gas emissions at each stage of the product's life. Additionally, this standard assists companies in comprehending the carbon footprints of their products after production, encouraging innovation to further reduce emissions beyond the manufacturing process.
Learn MoreISO 14044
ISO 14044 is an international standard that guides organizations in conducting Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) for their products or services. This LCA evaluates the environmental impact throughout a product's life cycle, from raw material extraction to disposal. ISO 14044 certification helps companies identify areas of high carbon emissions, enabling them to take targeted steps to reduce environmental impact, enhance sustainability, and foster transparency with stakeholders. It's a valuable tool for organizations striving to become more eco-friendly and carbon-conscious.

TfS Product Carbon Footprint
The Together for Sustainability (TfS) Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) Guideline offers step-by-step guidance to calculate emissions for chemical materials, fostering consistency across the industry. It allows companies to identify, track, and reduce emissions, ultimately enhancing the industry's carbon footprint and supporting transparent product-level emissions tracking. TfS aims to extend this resource's impact beyond the chemical sector, enabling cross-industry collaborations to drive carbon reduction efforts and create a more sustainable future.

WBCSD PACT
The Partnership for Carbon Accounting Transparency (PACT) is an initiative aimed at providing a standardized and consistent format for sharing product-level carbon footprint data. Developed by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), PACT streamlines data sharing among companies, enabling them to meet customer demands for carbon transparency and automate Scope 3-related calculations.
