Environmental Claims

Making Environmental Claims Credible and Compliant

Environmental claims are being scrutinized more and more critically. Organizations must substantiate green and climate claims with reliable, traceable and methodological sound data, while navigating evolving EU requirements and growing market expectations from customers and procurement.

Inconsistent data, unclear methodologies, and fragmented processes increase the risk of misleading or non-compliant claims – exposing companies to regulatory and reputational risk.
At DEKRA, we support organizations with independent verification and critical review services to substantiate environmental claims. This enables transparent, credible sustainability communication aligned with regulatory and market expectations.
Your Benefits

How We Support You

Substantiating environmental claims requires more than isolated data points. Organizations must ensure that claims remain consistent, comparable, traceable, and compliant across products, regions, communication channels, and over time. In practice, fragmented datasets, differing methodologies, and evolving regulatory expectations make this increasingly difficult.
DEKRA supports organizations with a structured portfolio of independent services for the verification, validation, and critical review of environmental claims. Our approach combines third-party assessment with technical expertise in product sustainability, sector-specific schemes, and recycled content verification, ensuring claims are credible, verifiable and defensible for regulators, customers, procurement teams, and business partners.
