What it proves

Third-party certification across five categories — material health, circularity, clean air & climate protection, water & soil stewardship, and social fairness — at an overall level (Bronze to Platinum).

What it does not prove

  • That every category scored at the overall level — categories are scored individually; the overall level is the lowest.
  • Anything about product performance or durability.
