It’s official: all ClimeCo-certified products recognized on Amazon under the Climate Pledge Friendly leaf icon will now display the ClimeCo Certified Product™ Program badge. Climate Pledge Friendly highlights products with trusted certifications that meet sustainability standards.
Formerly known as the CarbonFree® Product Certification, the ClimeCo Certified Product™ Program helps brands credibly measure, reduce, and decarbonize product carbon footprints through a rigorous, third-party verified methodology. Notably, CPF badged products sold on Amazon through the Climate Pledge Friendly program see a +12% sales lift on average in the first year of joining. [1] Participating ClimeCo Certified™ products display the Climate Pledge Friendly green leaf on Amazon, helping shoppers easily identify products with trusted certifications that meet sustainability standards.
Completing the transition from the CarbonFree® Product Certification badge to the ClimeCo Certified Product™ Program badge will help consumers easily identify ClimeCo-certified products when shopping on Amazon. By transitioning to the ClimeCo Certified Product badge on Amazon, ClimeCo has unified its branding and strengthened recognition of the ClimeCo Product Certification across retail platforms.
“We’re excited to make it even easier for Amazon shoppers to find our wide array of ClimeCo-Certified products,” said Linda Kelly, Senior Vice President, Certification Programs at ClimeCo. “This milestone reflects our continued commitment to transparency and gives consumers clear visibility into the rigorous sustainability standards behind the products they choose.”
ClimeCo remains focused on maintaining high standards for product certification. This includes participation in the Amazon Climate Pledge Friendly program. To help brands qualify for and earn the Amazon Climate Pledge Friendly leaf icon through the ClimeCo Certified Product™ Program, ClimeCo requires cradle-to-grave product life cycle assessments that comply with the ClimeCo program protocol. ClimeCo also provides guidance on the reductions needed to address ongoing product carbon footprints and facilitates access to global carbon emissions removal and reduction projects. These steps can help participating brands achieve true product decarbonization.
ClimeCo’s program technology portal streamlines the entire product certification process, qualifying products to receive the Amazon Climate Pledge Friendly badge.
