Demand for products containing biobased materials is on the increase. Manufacturers and brand owners face growing pressure to substantiate biobased content claims with credible scientific evidence. Consumers, regulators and supply chain partners are seeking greater transparency, while evolving requirements and industry standards demand reliable methods to verify renewable material content.
In this webinar, our experts will explore market drivers for verified biobased products and provide an overview of Carbon-14 testing. As the internationally recognized technique for determining the percentage of biobased carbon in a product, Carbon-14 testing serves as the scientific foundation for many certification programs.
Building on this foundation, SGS Biobased green mark certification includes the independent assessment of biobased content against defined program requirements. It helps organizations communicate product information using verified data and demonstrate conformity with applicable certification criteria across industries.
Through case studies and practical examples, attendees will gain insight into the application of Carbon-14 testing and our green mark certification solution across a range of products and sectors. The webinar will conclude with a Q&A session, providing an opportunity to engage directly with our experts.
