Certified CarbonNeutral®

The CarbonNeutral Company registered the CarbonNeutral® trademark in the 1990s. It is awarded to a product, service or activity that has completed a process laid out in the CarbonNeutral Protocol, and using the parameters of the specific CarbonNeutral brand mark to be applied. 

The Protocol is regularly reviewed for best practice throughout the year by an Independent Advisory Group , and it covers whole CarbonNeutral cycle - from 'measure' through to 'communicate'.   As such, whenever you see the CarbonNeutral logo, you know that the company is taking seriously its response to climate change.  Key principles are:

• Assessment of CO2 emissions by an independent third party
  
• The emissions have been reduced to net zero through internal reductions (change of a manufacturing process for example) and best practice external reductions (carbon offsetting)
  
• There is a commitment to reduce emissions internally on an on-going basis and to document progress
  
• To communicate what has been done clearly
