Sustainability Information Must Be Reliable

Identifying and avoiding any risk of misrepresentation in sustainability information represent challenges for reliable evaluation. Individual company statements basically have different time horizons, giving rise to different degrees of certainty. The assessment of greenhouse gas emissions as specified in ISO 14065 has highlighted the fundamental need to verify and validate environmental information and statements on sustainability (in reports, advertisements, comparisons, etc.) in accordance with uniformed criteria. Based on defined principles and its application to a wide range of forward-looking statements, ISO/IEC 17029 provides a standardised framework for the validation and verification of sustainability-related claims, ensuring credibility and consistency in reported information.
