What is the Purpose of the ISO 14064 Standard and Certification Process?

ISO 14064 is the international standard for the calculation and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions. Thanks to the reports we prepare in accordance with this standard, your company can successfully pass independent audits by accredited organizations such as Bureau Veritas and obtain a valid carbon footprint certificate.

How Do You Differ from Traditional Carbon Measurements?

While standard companies in the sector present emission data solely through static Excel spreadsheets, we utilize our expertise in surveying and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to spatially map the emission sources of your facilities on QGIS-based platforms. Thus, we provide location-based and visual analyses.

What is the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and How Does It Affect Us?

CBAM is a financial obligation that the European Union will impose on imported high-carbon products under the European Green Deal. Obtaining this certificate is a critical necessity for companies, especially those exporting to EU countries or operating in international markets, in order to protect their trade volumes.

What Data is Required from Our Company for Carbon Footprint Measurement?

Data pertaining to key emission sources—such as the annual electricity and natural gas consumption of the facilities, fuel consumption of company vehicles, logistics operations, raw material procurement processes, and waste quantities—are collected digitally and included in the analysis.

What are the Financial Benefits of Obtaining a Carbon Footprint Certificate for Our Company?

The certification process lowers your operational costs by enabling you to clearly identify energy and resource leaks within your company. Furthermore, it facilitates access to international green funds and provides your company with a significant competitive advantage in sustainability-focused tenders and corporate collaborations.
