To truly resonate with consumers and business-partners, labels should seamlessly blend bio-based attributes with environmental information, offering a clear picture of a product&#8217;s sustainability performance and benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here label communication should focus on personal benefits for the consumer, added value and positive impacts and include information on bio-based (or renewable carbon) content in a future digital product passport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A key task in this quest is raising awareness. Currently, most products are made from fossil carbon from the ground. In order to mitigate and end climate change producers and consumers should favour alternative carbon sources, especially biomass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The upcoming three-hour nova-webinar will explore various avenues for sustainability certification in biomass and bio-based products. Participants will gain insights into navigating the evolving landscape, including upcoming requirements with the impending Green Claims Directive, and discover how to craft a compelling sustainability narrative that resonates with consumers, elevating brands\u2019 commitments to a sustainable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>nova Session on Sustainability Certification \u2013 a Solid Basis for Reliable Green Claims<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>16 May 2024,\u00a0<br>13:00-16:00 CEST<br>online<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/events.renewable-carbon.eu\/event\/nova-session-on-sustainability-certification-16-may\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Register here<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Programme<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Dr. Asta Partanen<\/strong>&nbsp;(nova-Institute) \u2013&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Quo Vadis Sustainability Certification?<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Nicolas Hark<\/strong>\u00a0(nova-Institute) \u2013\u00a0<em>EU Green Claims Directive \u2013 What Does it Mean for the Industry?<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Jasmin Brinkmann<\/strong>&nbsp;(ISCC)<em>&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;&nbsp;Insights about the ISCC PLUS Certification Scheme and how to make Credible Claims<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Erika Bartolomei and Gustavo Bacchi&nbsp;<\/strong>(SCS Global Services)<em>&nbsp;\u2013 Biomass and Bio-based Products\u2019 Sustainability Certification.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"626\" height=\"329\" src=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/05\/Bildschirmfoto-2024-05-10-um-13.29.26.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-143956\" srcset=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/05\/Bildschirmfoto-2024-05-10-um-13.29.26.png 626w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/05\/Bildschirmfoto-2024-05-10-um-13.29.26-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/05\/Bildschirmfoto-2024-05-10-um-13.29.26-150x79.png 150w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2024\/05\/Bildschirmfoto-2024-05-10-um-13.29.26-400x210.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 626px) 100vw, 626px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Topics will include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Overview of the biomass sustainability certification landscape<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Certification process and traceability, chain of custody models<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Verification and certification requirements from the proposed Green Claims Directive<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Practical examples from certificate scheme owner ISCC and certification body SGS Global<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>nova Session on Sustainability Certification \u2013 a Solid Basis for Reliable Green Claims 16 May 2024, 13:00-16:00 CEST, online Looking for clarity amidst the sea of choices when shopping can be overwhelming.
