Ensuring Sustainability, Traceability, and Compliance Across Renewable Supply Chains
Proving that renewable materials are sourced responsibly and managed in line with defined sustainability requirements is increasingly challenging for organizations. Rising regulatory expectations combined with complex global supply chains make it difficult to demonstrate that biomass, recycled inputs, and other renewable feedstocks comply with recognized sustainability, traceability, and documentation criteria. DEKRA supports companies by independently verifying sustainable sourcing practices, mass balance systems, and documented material flows across renewable and circular value chains.
Based on internationally established sustainability frameworks, our certification services ensure that renewable resources are traceable, properly accounted for, and managed according to defined rules. This creates reliable transparency for customers, regulators, and market partners, strengthening trust and enabling access to regulated and high-value markets.
How We Support You
Companies that work with renewable, biomass-based, or recycled materials face mounting pressure to prove that these resources align with recognized sustainability standards. Demonstrating compliance, maintaining accurate mass balance systems, and managing reliable chain-of-custody documentation can be challenging, particularly when dealing with complex global supply chains. Markets and regulators expect clear evidence that renewable feedstocks, including agricultural biomass, waste- and residue-based materials, electricity-based fuel such as green hydrogen, and circular inputs, are responsibly sourced and correctly traced through every processing step.
DEKRA helps organizations meet these expectations by conducting independent audits based on internationally established sustainability requirements, such as ISCC EU or REDcert. We evaluate the sustainable production of renewable materials, the correct application of mass balance and allocation rules, and the completeness and verifiability of documentation related to material flows. By confirming alignment with these requirements, we provide a solid foundation for subsequent certification processes and enable companies to demonstrate credible sustainability performance across their renewable value chains.
