Sustainability · Verification · Assurance
Verdant verifies the claims your brand makes about carbon, materials and social responsibility — with evidence your investors, regulators and retail partners can actually audit.
The greenhouse gas inventory for the referenced product line has been reviewed in line with the GHG Protocol product standard. Limited assurance, in accordance with internationally recognised verification frameworks.
Frameworks & schemes our verifiers work within
Five disciplines, one standard of evidence. Every statement we issue is backed by documentation you can hand straight to an auditor.
Corporate and product-level greenhouse gas inventories reviewed against the GHG Protocol and ISO 14064/14067, with boundary, data quality and recalculation checks that stand up to third-party audit. We verify Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions and the assumptions behind them — then help you explain the result honestly.
Request a scoping callSupplier-level environmental, social and governance screening — documentation review, on-site verification and risk ratings your procurement team can act on.
Recycled-content, biodegradability, carbon-neutral and similar marketing claims — checked against evidence before they reach the label, not after a complaint does.
Fibre composition, chain-of-custody and responsible sourcing verification for textiles, packaging and timber-based products, aligned with recognised certification schemes.
Labour conditions, health and safety, working hours and grievance mechanisms — audited on site, reported without euphemism, with corrective action plans that actually close.
A diagnostic view of environmental, social and governance readiness. Toggle the lenses to see how your maturity profile shifts across the dimensions that investors actually weight.
Illustrative scoring model for a mid-size consumer goods supplier. Your own baseline is established in the scoping phase of any verification.

Our verifiers come from the industries they audit — so the questions they ask are the ones your buyers and regulators will.
Chain-of-custody verification, fibre composition testing and social audits for the most exposed consumer category.
Responsible sourcing, energy efficiency claims and product carbon footprints for the devices in every pocket.
Land-use emissions, sustainable sourcing claims and cold-chain footprint verification for food brands.
Material-level footprints, responsible timber verification and project emissions reporting for built assets.
Distribution network footprints, packaging claims and supplier ESG sweeps across multi-tier networks.
Renewable energy attribute verification, avoided-emissions claims and infrastructure project assurance.
From the first scoping call to the issued statement, every phase leaves a documented trail your auditors can follow years later.
Boundary, materiality and claim definition. We agree exactly what is being verified — and what is not — before a single document changes hands.
Desktop review of inventories, invoices and monitoring data, followed by site visits, interviews and sampling where the risk assessment demands them.
Data is tested against the chosen framework, findings are logged with severity, and an independent reviewer challenges every conclusion we reach.
A verification statement is issued with the full audit trail, plus a handover call to walk your team through any findings and recommendations.
Our assurance work follows recognised verification methodologies, applied by practitioners with sector-specific training records.
Inventories, invoices, bills of lading and monitoring records — traced to source, not taken on faith.
Physical inspection of sites, meters, processes and records — the difference between a spreadsheet and a supply chain.
Recalculation, sampling and cross-checking of emission factors and conversion assumptions against published references.
Workers, managers and suppliers — triangulated testimony that surfaces what documents alone never will.
Not every claim needs the same intensity of scrutiny. We match the level of assurance to the risk and the audience.
Limited assurance — targeted procedures, review-level evidence, suitable for internal reporting and early disclosures.
Reasonable assurance — exhaustive testing, site-level verification and independent review, suitable for public filings and investor-grade disclosures.
Framework alignment — gap analysis against GHG Protocol, ISO 14064, CSRD and scheme requirements before you commit to a full cycle.
Verdant verifiers operate in line with ISO 14064-3, ISO 14065 and the GHG Protocol, and follow the independence and impartiality requirements of internationally recognised assurance practice. Verification statements are issued only after independent technical review.
Greenwashing erodes everyone's market. Our only product is evidence, which is why the systems around it are non-negotiable.
If the evidence does not support the claim, the statement is not issued. There is no premium tier for a better verdict.
Competence records, ongoing training and independent technical review for every engagement, however small.
Framework alignments, verifier qualifications and statement templates are sent on request — before you sign, if you prefer.
