Sustainability Verified Marks

Sustainability Verified Marks

Organizations committed to controlling carbon emissions, water usage and waste generation now have a way to gain competitive advantage from their efforts.

By having an independent verification to an internationally accredited standard, CICS clients earn the right to display the Verified Mark(s) to their constituents via:

  • Website and online communications
  • Marketing literature and annual reports
  • Publicity
  • Trade show displays.

Stand Out in Your Field

The task of creating a carbon, water or waste inventory and having it verified is an essential step in accomplishing your program of sustainability goals. It may well be that your organization is ahead of others in your own industry. Making your accomplishment public is a way of setting yourself apart from competitors, or for inspiring co-opetition among like institutions.

How to Earn

The only way to earn the Verification Marks is to complete an inventory and have that inventory independently verified with a CICS verifier to a recognized international standard, such as TCR, CCAR, RGGI, WRI, 14064, and – for aviation operators flying into Europe—EU-ETS.

Guidelines for Using the Mark

The CICS Veriication Marks are not intended for replication on products or packaging as they may not relate to a particular product. It can, however, be used on your marketing materials, including printed collateral, website, and trade exhibition displays. We can supply either .JPEG or .EPS formats of the appropriate year mark for your use.
