Carbon Footprint of Products
ISO 14067:2018 is an international standard that provides principles, requirements, and guidelines for the quantification and reporting of the carbon footprint of a product (CFP).
This is done in a manner consistent with International Standards on life cycle assessment (LCA) (ISO 14040 and ISO 14044). The standard addresses only a single impact category: climate change.
Carbon offsetting and communication of CFP or partial CFP information are outside the scope of the standard. It does not assess any social or economic aspects or impacts, or any other environmental aspects and related impacts potentially arising from the life cycle of a product.
This first edition cancels and replaces ISO/TS 14067:2013, which has been technically revised.
It constitutes a reduction in scope as follows:
- Principles, requirements, and guidance on communication of the carbon footprint of a product (CFP) and the partial CFP are now covered in ISO 14026.
- Principles, requirements, and guidance on verification are now covered in ISO 14064-3.
