Who are Planet Mark?

Since their launch in 2013, Planet Mark have been on a steadfast mission to empower change for a brighter future. For over a decade, this sustainability certification and net zero provider has supported and helped companies to radically reduce carbon emissions, create operational efficiencies, enhance profits and work towards the global transition to net zero. Beginning the collaborative journey with each partner by ‘measuring what matters’, Planet Mark offers valuable insights and recommendations to help accelerate a business’ journey to net zero. Alongside this, they educate and inspire each member of the team, creating a behaviour change that not only immediately reduces carbon emissions but drives cost savings through lowering consumption.

Planet Mark Business Certification

The Planet Mark Business Certification provides tangible and impartial verification that each organisation is making progress in relentlessly reducing carbon emissions. Clad Safety is thrilled to have received this certification, which will engender customer loyalty, trust, satisfaction and peace of mind.

The Background

Despite years of research and technological advancements, it is not a simple task to accurately measure carbon emissions. Greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide (CO2), are colourless, invisible and scentless, making direct measurement difficult. This means many organizations rely on estimations, resulting in imprecise data which inevitably misinforms sustainability target planning. Nature’s carbon cycle, (the flows between the atmosphere, oceans, and terrestrial ecosystems), also fluctuates annually. This lack of concrete and quantifiable evidence is troublesome, and the widespread practice of greenwashing only makes things worse.

The Solution

This is why Clad Safety have partnered with an organisation that sits at the forefront of legalisation to help us future-proof our business. It will enable us to gain independent data and assurance for our carbon footprint, giving us credible and verifiable figures to communicate. Planet Mark will work closely with us to embed a culture of sustainability through CPD-accredited workshops and training, which is closely aligned with our company goals.

What This Means For You…

With increasing awareness of, and alignment with, the global efforts to tackle climate change across all sectors, consumer decisions are increasingly being made based on a companies’ environmental claims. But, as outlined earlier, these environmental declarations are not always accurate. This gives rise to uncertainty and doubt when sourcing decisions factor-in sustainability targets. Working with Planet Mark removes any ambiguity or risk of misrepresentation, enabling the customer to make a choice in the sure knowledge they are engaging with an organisation with certifiable sustainability credentials.
