ISCC Certification & Pre-Assessment Services
Achieve global sustainability recognition with ECG’s turn-key ISCC certification support. From initial pre-assessments to final audit preparation, we help your business master traceability and GHG requirements for ISCC EU, PLUS, and CORSIA.
In an increasingly regulated global market, the International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC) has emerged as the leading standard for documenting sustainability and carbon reduction across complex supply chains. Whether you are in the circular economy, bio-energy, or food and feed sectors, ISCC certification provides the “receipts” for your sustainability claims.
ECG Global Solutions provides a comprehensive, end-to-end pathway to certification, ensuring your systems are technically robust and “audit-ready” from day one.
Understanding ISCC Certification Schemes
ISCC is a globally recognized, multi-stakeholder system that covers all sustainable feedstocks, including agricultural and forestry biomass, biogenic wastes, and recycled materials. Depending on your market, we help you navigate the three primary schemes:
ISCC EU: Mandatory for companies supplying the European biofuels market, demonstrating compliance with the Renewable Energy Directive (RED II).
ISCC PLUS: A voluntary certification for non-regulated markets, including circular and bio-based plastics, chemicals, food, and feed. It is the gold standard for companies transitioning to a circular economy.
ISCC CORSIA: Specifically designed for the aviation industry to certify Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) under the ICAO CORSIA framework.
Our Turn-Key ISCC Certification Support
ECG manages the entire journey, significantly reducing the administrative burden on your team.
- ISCC Pre-Assessment (Gap Analysis)
The biggest risk to certification is a “non-compliance” finding during the formal audit. We conduct a rigorous pre-assessment to:
– Identify missing documentation or data gaps.
– Evaluate your current Chain of Custody and mass balance calculations.
– Provide a detailed “Corrective Action Plan” to ensure success before the official auditor arrives. - System Implementation & Documentation
We help you build the required management systems from the ground up, including:
– Developing internal procedures for sustainable material handling.
– Setting up mass balance spreadsheets and GHG emission calculation models.
– Training your staff on ISCC requirements and traceability protocols. - Registration & Audit Coordination
We handle the technicalities of the ISCC HUB registration and assist in selecting the right Certification Body (CB). During the audit, we act as your technical advisor to ensure a smooth and defensible process. - Post-Audit & Ongoing Compliance
Once certified, we assist in the management of “Sustainability Declarations” and ensure your annual reporting to the ISCC is accurate to maintain your standing.
