The program has been designed to encompass and measure all direct and indirect energy sources used in servicing the client including the travel and transport, energy and accommodation used by Intertek.

The company will issue a certificate to its clients stating their offset net emissions, monetary value and offset project summary. Intertek will use Eco Securities-Climate Care to provide the monetization and portfolio of offset projects that include renewable energy, biomass, methane power generation and agricultural projects.

Intertek will expand the program globally, across all of its service line and expects this program to help multinational companies quantify their total CO2 footprint across their complex global supply chains and create emissions reduction off-set programs.

Wolfhart Hauser, CEO of Intertek, said: “Our aim is to make it easier for our clients to meet their environmental goals when using Intertek. Now we will provide a report and certificate showing the emissions generated through our auditing work and give them an immediate option to offset those.”
