Booost PCF Achieves ISO14067 Validation

Booost, located in Shinagawa, Tokyo, is a leader in providing sustainability ERP solutions, aiming to assist companies in their sustainability transformation (SX) initiatives. Notably, their product booost PCF (Product Carbon Footprint) has recently received validation from SGS Japan, confirming its calculations align with the international standard ISO14067. This recognition underscores Booost's commitment to helping businesses navigate environmental regulations and enhance their sustainability practices.

Importance of Carbon Footprint Assessment

In today's environment, there is a growing demand for companies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions throughout their supply chains. As international regulations, such as Europe's Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and various eco-design regulations evolve, it has become crucial for organizations to visualize and disclose their product carbon footprint (PCF) data.

The ability to accurately assess GHG emissions at a product level is rapidly becoming essential for maintaining compliance with both domestic and international sustainability standards. Booost's booost PCF provides this capability by precisely analyzing GHG emissions throughout the entire lifecycle of a product—from raw material procurement, manufacturing, and distribution, to usage and disposal.

Primarily utilizing data directly from suppliers, Booost enhances the accuracy of its emissions calculations. Furthermore, the PCF feature complies with international carbon data collaboration frameworks like PACT and initiatives spearheaded by Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), allowing seamless sharing and interconnectivity of carbon data across the supply chain.

Validation by SGS Japan

The third-party validation from SGS Japan confirms that the design and calculation algorithms of booost PCF meet the requirements set forth in ISO14067. This standard provides a framework for quantifying and reporting GHG emissions across the entire lifecycle of products.

The validation process included hearings with personnel regarding the calculation methods, review of relevant documentation, and recalculations, ultimately leading to the conclusion that Booost's system design and calculating functions comply with ISO14067. This reinforces booost PCF as a reliable tool for businesses looking to make informed, transparent environmental claims to customers, investors, and supply partners.
