What is ISO 14067
What Is ISO 14067

ISO 14067 is an international standard that defines how to measure the carbon footprint of products. It’s not a regulation, but a framework for consistent, transparent carbon calculations. This means manufacturers can use it to assess emissions across a product’s life cycle—from raw materials to disposal. By following ISO 14067, companies speak the same language when it comes to carbon data, which is increasingly expected by global partners, investors, and eco-conscious customers.

Why It Matters for Manufacturers

For manufacturers, ISO 14067 is more than a box to tick. It provides a scientific, credible method to track and reduce emissions. Using this standard can help identify emission hotspots in your supply chain, improve efficiency, and set measurable sustainability goals. Moreover, third-party certifications based on ISO 14067 add trust and value to your products—especially in competitive markets where climate impact is a buying factor.

Making It Work: Practical Steps

You don’t need to rebuild your entire system to start using ISO 14067. You can begin by gathering accurate data—like energy usage, material inputs, and transport distances. Then, you can choose a carbon accounting tool or consulting partner that follows ISO 14067 guidelines to help you calculate and document your product’s carbon footprint. Many companies now rely on digital platforms that automate data collection, apply standard-compliant methods, and keep everything updated in real-time. The key is to ensure consistency, traceability, and proper documentation throughout the process.

The core of EUDR compliance is establishing a low-cost and confidential evidence system, following the data minimization principle. It requires providing necessary data around three core issues, clarifying data boundaries and transmission norms, and avoiding compliance and confidentiality misunderstandings.

Product carbon footprint is a full-life-cycle carbon emission record of products, following international standards like ISO 14067. It has two accounting boundaries, helping enterprises meet global low-carbon requirements, optimize design and green marketing, and enhance global competitiveness.

Organizational carbon inventory is a basic carbon health check for enterprises low-carbon transformation. Following standards like GHG Protocol and ISO 14064-1, it covers three emission scopes and completes accounting via a four-step process, meeting carbon market compliance needs.

GHG Inventory

EUDR covers 7 product categories like timber and coffee. The EU proposed extending its implementation in Nov 2025 (not in force yet). Exporters don’t file DDS directly but need to send compliance info like GPS coordinates; they can solve upstream coordinate issues and prepare by country risk level (China is low-risk) to avoid clearance delays.
