Climate Neutral Commodity (CNC) defined the first ever certification standard for carbon-neutral transactions and services in the raw materials industry and Bureau Veritas will be the chosen preferred verification body to validate these carbon-neutral commodities.
Climate Neutral Commodity has defined a certification protocol to validate climate-neutral commodity transactions, while it is also working with commodity producers to certify first cradle-to-gate climate neutral oil and minerals transactions in Middle East, Asia and Africa.

Furthermore, CNC is collaborating with maritime companies to issue Climate Neutral Services certification for shipping solutions (chartering contracts) for vessels in Asia and Europe.
The CNC certification standard delivered by the CNC aims to guarantee the credibility of an organization’s environmental announcements by verification procedures, as expected of an independent certification body.
CNC’s certification protocol was defined by a large panel of experts and shareholders and based on recognized standards and methodologies for GHG accounting and reporting, carbon reduction and compensation through high-quality carbon offsets, and verification by independent third parties.
Our role will be to promote the emergence of carbon-neutral commodity markets by ensuring the verification, transparency and implementation of best practices
Jacques Pommeraud, general director Africa, France and Gov. Services, said.
