Fosroc Achieves CarbonNeutral® Product Certification

Fosroc UK & ROI has achieved CarbonNeutral® product certification, in accordance with The CarbonNeutral Protocol, the leading global framework for carbon neutrality.

To achieve CarbonNeutral® product certification, Fosroc is working with Climate Impact Partners, specialist in carbon market solutions for climate action, and had an independent assessment of the greenhouse gas emissions produced from the manufacture of Conbextra GP, Conbextra HF, Patchroc 250, Renderoc HB45 and Renderoc LA60.

As well as taking actions to reduce its footprint through reduced energy consumption in the factory, moving to a predominantly electric car fleet, supporting social value projects and improving product ingredients and packaging, unavoidable emissions have been offset through projects including the Renewable energy portfolio and Aqua Clara Water Filters in Kenya.

“We are delighted to work with experts in this sector, Climate Impact Partners. They have over 25 years’ experience supporting over 600 carbon projects across 56 countries focused on transforming the global economy, improving health and livelihoods, and restoring a thriving planet. Working with Climate Impact Partners means all the projects we are supporting are independently verified and have a real and positive impact on the climate.” Craig Harcombe, General Manager UK & Ireland.

A spokesperson for Climate Impact Partners explained: “We work with leading organisations to deliver action on climate change and create a more sustainable world. Our joined-up approach helps organizations address their environmental impacts through high-quality carbon market solutions that also deliver positive impact for nature and local communities.”

About CarbonNeutral® certification

CarbonNeutral® certification was created and is managed by Climate Impact Partners. It was the first clear set of guidelines for businesses to achieve carbon neutrality back in 2002, and every year since then Climate Impact Partners has continued its commitment to providing a robust framework for clear, transparent and high-quality carbon neutral action. The CarbonNeutral Protocol is a publicly available document that sets out the requirements for companies to achieve CarbonNeutral® certification. It is updated annually with input from an Advisory Council of external experts to ensure it reflects the latest industry and scientific best practice.
