Sustainability Claims
In today’s market, sustainability claims are everywhere, however, not all of them are trustworthy. Whether you're promoting recycled content, carbon neutrality, or ethical sourcing, your customers, investors, and regulators expect proof. Unverified claims can damage your reputation and expose your business to legal and financial risks. That’s why independent verification is essential. Kiwa helps you back up your sustainability statements with credible, standards-based assessments that build trust and ensure compliance.
Why verifying sustainability claims matters
Greenwashing is no longer just a reputational risk it’s become a regulatory one. As consumer awareness grows and legislation like the Empco (Empowering Consumers for the Green Transition) and in the future EU Green Claims Directive tightens, companies must be able to substantiate every environmental or social claim they make. Kiwa supports you in verifying claims related to recycled content, carbon footprint, circularity, and more, using internationally recognized standards like ISO 14021 and ISO 14068
Our assessments are tailored to your sector and product type, ensuring that your messaging is not only accurate but also aligned with market expectations.
Turning transparency into competitive advantage
Verified sustainability claims do more than protect your brand—they enhance it. They help you stand out in tenders, meet procurement requirements, and win the trust of increasingly conscious consumers. Kiwa’s global network and sector-specific expertise ensure that your claims are credible across borders and industries. Whether you're launching a new product, entering a new market, or preparing for ESG reporting, we help you turn transparency into a strategic asset.
