What it proves

A quantified cradle-to-gate or cradle-to-grave greenhouse-gas figure for the product, ideally to ISO 14067.

Comparability with other products without matching scope, functional unit, and methodology.
'Low carbon' as a judgement — the report gives a number, not a benchmark.

Minimum authority: Manufacturer declared
Should state: System Boundary · Functional Unit · Methodology · Reference Year
Date sensitivity: Expiry is not the primary issue; check scope and method instead.

Third-party verification elevates this substantially; ask if it was reviewed.
