CarbonChain’s Carbon Footprint Methods Re-Validated by SGS

CarbonChain is proud to have, once again, received third-party validation of our latest Product Carbon Footprint Accounting and Reporting Methodology (Version 2.2), and additional sector-specific methodologies for Agriculture*, Oil & Gas, Chemicals*, Transport, and Metals & Mining.

SGS, a world leader in testing, inspection and certification services (TIC), has independently reviewed and validated these methodologies as aligned with the leading global carbon accounting standard – the GHG Protocol Product Life Cycle Accounting and Reporting Standard and GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard – in September 2025 and March 2024 respectively.

*New additional sector specific methodologies for 2025.

 

Why is validation important?

Manufacturers and commodity traders who use third-party software to measure and track their commodity carbon footprints need assurance that their calculations are grounded in best practice. Independent validation of CarbonChain's latest methodology is an important marker of credibility for customers’ internal and external emissions reporting.

 

CarbonChain's commitment to accuracy

CarbonChain is building the most accurate carbon accounting platform for commodities supply chains. In addition to a validated methodology, we use robust independent emission databases to close data gaps, especially where direct supplier data is unavailable, and we continuously improve the accuracy of these emission factors.
