There are a myriad of sustainability claims in the market today. The ISEAL Sustainability Claims Good Practice Guide was developed through a multi-stakeholder consultation process to define good practice for scheme owners in setting and managing claims about their standards system.

The ISEAL Sustainability Claims Good Practice Guide builds on the claims-related criteria in ISEAL’s Code of Good Practice for Sustainability Systems and highlights the strategic decisions and actions that a scheme owner needs to take in developing and implementing its claims system.

The What & Why Clauses document provides an overview of the actionable clauses presented in the ISEAL Sustainability Claims Good Practice Guide Version 2.0. It is designed to be a quick reference guide and can act as a checklist of claims considerations for sustainability systems.
