Understanding the greenhouse gas emissions associated with products, processes, and organizational activities is an important step toward effective climate action. A carbon footprint provides a structured view of relevant emissions across defined boundaries, helping organizations identify environmental impacts and establish credible reduction priorities.
At KBSG Quality Certification Services LLC, we provide carbon footprint assessment and verification services that evaluate emissions information against applicable standards, methodologies, and defined assessment criteria. Our approach helps organizations develop reliable carbon data and strengthen the credibility of environmental claims and sustainability initiatives.
Our carbon services cover assessment and verification requirements for organizations and products, helping establish reliable emissions information across defined boundaries. Key service areas include:
A product carbon footprint assessment quantifies greenhouse gas emissions associated with a product across defined life-cycle stages, providing a structured basis for understanding and managing environmental impacts.
A cradle-to-gate assessment evaluates emissions from raw material extraction through manufacturing and up to the point where a product leaves the reporting organization or production facility.
A cradle-to-cradle approach considers relevant stages across a product’s life cycle, including material inputs, production, use, recovery, recycling, or other defined end-of-life processes.
Product carbon footprint verification provides an independent evaluation of calculated emissions information against applicable requirements, methodology, evidence, and defined verification criteria.
ISO14067 product carbon footprint verification assesses product carbon footprint information against the applicable principles and requirements of ISO 14067, supporting credible and transparent environmental reporting.
Our assessment process reviews relevant activity data, emission factors, system boundaries, assumptions, calculations, and supporting evidence to establish confidence in reported carbon footprint information.
MEASUREMENT & VERIFICATION
Reliable carbon information provides organizations with a stronger foundation for environmental decision-making, emissions reduction planning, sustainability reporting, and credible communication with customers and other stakeholders.

OUR APPROACH
Our approach combines technical competence, impartiality, documented evidence, and systematic evaluation to strengthen confidence in carbon footprint calculations, methodologies, and reported environmental information.
We evaluate carbon footprint information against defined criteria and supporting evidence, maintaining objectivity throughout the assessment or verification process and clearly documenting relevant findings.
Our technical assessment considers applicable boundaries, activity data, emission factors, calculation methods, assumptions, and supporting records to evaluate the reliability of reported carbon information.
Carbon footprint assessment and verification should follow appropriate standards, methodologies, system boundaries, and defined criteria. For product carbon footprints, ISO14067 product carbon footprint verification provides a recognized basis for evaluating relevant greenhouse gas emissions across the defined product life cycle. Depending on the engagement scope, assessments may include cradle-to-gate, cradle-to-cradle, or other specified life-cycle boundaries. The applicable methodology, evidence, and verification criteria are established according to the specific product, organization, and intended use of the carbon footprint information.
FAQ’S
A product carbon footprint assessment measures greenhouse gas emissions associated with a product across defined life-cycle stages, helping organizations understand environmental impacts and reduction opportunities.
Cradle-to-gate measures relevant emissions from raw material extraction through production until the product leaves the manufacturer’s defined boundary or facility.
Cradle-to-cradle considers relevant product life-cycle stages, including material sourcing, production, use, recovery, recycling, and defined end-of-life processes where applicable.
Product carbon footprint verification independently evaluates calculated emissions information, supporting data, methodologies, assumptions, and evidence against applicable standards and defined verification criteria.
ISO14067 product carbon footprint verification evaluates product carbon footprint information against applicable ISO 14067 principles and requirements, supporting credible and transparent environmental performance reporting.
Yes, KBSG provides product carbon footprint assessment services in the UAE, evaluating relevant emissions information according to applicable standards, methodologies, boundaries, and defined assessment criteria.
Yes, product carbon footprint verification in UAE can be conducted against applicable requirements and defined criteria, depending on the product, assessment scope, methodology, and intended application.
Carbon footprint assessment generally requires relevant activity data, emission factors, system boundaries, calculation methods, assumptions, life-cycle information, and supporting records appropriate to the defined assessment scope.
Independent verification evaluates reported carbon information against defined criteria, helping strengthen confidence in calculations, supporting credible environmental claims, and improving transparency for relevant stakeholders.
The appropriate boundary depends on the assessment purpose and defined methodology. It may include cradle-to-gate, cradle-to-cradle, or other applicable life-cycle stages.
