About Us


Innovative and forward-thinking solutions to enhance sustainability.



More than ever before customers, investors and wider stakeholders are putting pressure on organisations to adapt practices to improve their environmental performance.

Founded to solve a mounting problem

In spite of a growing pressure to improve environmental performance, evidencing progress and commitment to adopting sustainable processes or products is often challenging or marred with scepticism of greenwashing.

The Sustainable Certifications Group was founded in 2018 with the aim of providing a solution to this growing problem – a lack of credible schemes that certify the recycled content of materials. Our small but passionate team bring almost 40 years of combined experience working directly in energy, waste, material reprocessing, and circular and sustainable business practice development. Our extensive knowledge and expertise across these fields ensure that your organisation will receive comprehensive and trusted guidance.

Our certification schemes allow companies to easily demonstrate they offer products that promote responsibly sourced materials across the supply chain. Rather than focusing on the recyclability of the product – which puts onus on the end user – we certify the recycled content of the material, which often results in a lower carbon product.

Not only that, but our independent certification process provides clients with assurance that the sustainability claims of the product purchased (i.e., lower carbon footprint or recycled content %) are credible.
