Validation & Verification Services

Standard Carbon Inc. offers clients services to validate/verify environmental information statements.
Accredited under ISO/IEC 17029:2019 & ISO 14065:2020 by the Standards Council of Canada. 

Validation is a process that is used to assess the reasonableness of assumptions, limitations and methods that support an environmental statement about the outcome of FUTURE activities. Verification is the process of evaluating an environmental information statement of historical data and information to determine if the statement is materially correct and confirms to the criteria. Carbon Footprint (Greenhouse Gas Emissions) inventories/projects of a product may be verified.
