Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Carbon Footprint certification, also known as the calculation and certification of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, is generally carried out according to the specific needs and objectives of an organisation.
There is no single rule that determines when the Carbon Footprint should be certified, but it may be relevant in the following situations:
- Legal or regulatory requirements: in some countries or regions, organisations may be required by law to report their GHG emissions. In this case, Carbon Footprint certification is a legal requirement and must be done according to established deadlines and regulations.
- Customer or business partner requirement: In some cases, customers or business partners may require organisations to certify their carbon footprint as part of their contractual or supply requirements. This is especially common in sustainable supply chains.
An LCA is a useful tool for companies for several important reasons, as it provides a comprehensive and detailed view of the environmental aspects of a product, process or service throughout its life cycle, from the extraction of raw materials to its final disposal.
