Fossil Free Products. Guidelines and Requirements for Fossil Fuel Free Supply Chains
Soveltamisala
Suomenkielistä soveltamisalaa ei ole saatavissa.
This document provides guidelines and requirements for fully and partially fossil free supply chains for physical, digital and hybrid products and services. The document focuses on transparency of fossil fuel use and fossil-derived materials within supply chains, rather than on individual products.
The intended audience for this document includes:
- Manufacturers of physical goods who wish to increase transparency regarding fossil fuel use in their production processes, including energy sources and fossil-derived materials.
- Digital service providers who want to ensure that their infrastructure, including servers and digital services, meets fossil free criteria.
- Suppliers within the supply chain who need to comply with the same fossil free requirements to ensure the certification extends across the entire chain.
- Certification bodies that assess and verify that products and services meet the fossil free requirements outlined in this document.
This document applies across industries working to increase transparency and decarbonize their supply chains, offering clear, specific requirements for identifying and tracking fossil reliance. However, it is important to note that the focus is strictly on upstream processes - material extraction, production, and transport - up to the point of final product delivery.
This document does not evaluate broader sustainability metrics such as recycling, energy efficiency, the use phase of products by consumers, or end-of-life impacts. Additionally, it does not account for all greenhouse gases but is specifically limited to fossil fuels and fossil-based materials.
By focusing on greater transparency and disclosure in fossil fuel use within supply chains, this document serves as a structured framework for tracking and reducing reliance on fossil fuels where possible. It is intended to complement, rather than replace, existing EU regulations and standards, which have priority and are intended to be fulfilled before applying this document.
This document is greenhouse gas (GHG) programme neutral. If a GHG programme is applicable, requirements of that GHG programme are additional to the requirements of this document.
