Offsetting the company’s carbon footprint.
Once you know your company’s overall emissions, you can carry out different projects to offset the same amount of emissions in order to achieve neutrality.
These projects must have an official certificate in order to be valid.
Certificate of the offsetting of the company’s carbon footprint.

What types of carbon footprint offset certificates are available for my company?
The carbon footprint offset certificate is unique. There is only a small differentiation.
CARBON NEUTRAL
If the activities and projects carried out offset the exact amount of emissions of the company.

What can I use the carbon footprint offset certificate for?
Once you obtain the carbon footprint offset certificate, you will have full availability to use it in any identification of the company, from the packaging of the products, as an identifying seal in any premises or physical installation of the company or in digital identifications such as website, email signature, proposals or corporate presentations.

What is the carbon footprint?
We can define the carbon footprint as the amount of greenhouse gases emitted by our business as a result of its usual activities and tasks.
