Intertek’s CarbonZero certification enables companies worldwide to confidently market qualifying carbon-neutral products and services as Intertek CarbonZero Verified, demonstrating tangible and auditable progress on the path to net zero carbon emissions.

Independent Carbon-Neutral Certification

Intertek CarbonZero delivers independent and traceable carbon-neutral certification of products and services

The new Intertek CarbonZero program complements the previously launched Intertek CarbonClear program, an independent carbon emissions intensity certification verifying actual emissions incurred per unit produced and standardized by industry. Intertek CarbonZero certifies the achievement of carbon neutrality by combining emissions intensity certifications, such as CarbonClear, together with certification of traceable high-quality carbon capture or reduction investments.

Products and services earning the Intertek CarbonZero Verified certification are evaluated for independently certified operations emissions intensities, and high-quality carbon reduction investments, and must meet key standards for traceability worldwide. With Intertek CarbonZero, stakeholders can invest securely knowing their Intertek CarbonZero Verified products have been independently certified to the highest standards worldwide, and the program can be applied at any phase of production, manufacturing, assembly or delivery, regardless of industry or supply chain configuration.

Powered by our global network of technical experts, the Intertek CarbonZero program:

• Delivers verification of high-quality carbon reduction investments, traceability, certified operations emission intensity, and confirmation of carbon neutrality for designated products and services
• Enables the next step in any company’s journey towards carbon neutrality
