What this checklist covers
This checklist covers the core elements required to produce a credible Product Carbon Footprint aligned with ISO 14067, with a focus on readiness for external disclosure.
It guides teams through key methodological and governance checks, including functional unit definition, system boundaries, identification of high impact life cycle stages, prioritisation of primary data, documentation of data sources and assumptions, cut off rules, interpretation of results, alignment of claims, and review or verification preparedness.
The checklist is intentionally industry-agnostic. The examples provided reflect common Product Carbon Footprint and LCA use cases across multiple sectors.
Who this checklist is meant for

It is particularly relevant for organisations preparing Product Carbon Footprints for use in procurement, customer disclosures, reporting, certifications, environmental claims, or future regulatory and assurance requirements, regardless of industry or product type.
