Join ISO/IEC 17025:2017-accredited laboratory SGS Beta for an in-depth look at how Carbon-14 analysis verifies the biobased content of modern materials and products. This session is aimed toward professionals working in sustainability, compliance, product development, research, quality control and assurance, product marketing, and certification who are involved in verifying or regulating biobased claims.
Turning Biobased Claims into Proof: Carbon-14 Testing for Market Confidence
Dr. Maren Pauly, Scientific Associate at SGS Beta, will explain how ASTM D6866 distinguishes biobased from fossil carbon, helping companies substantiate “biobased” claims. Learn through example reports, real-world case studies across packaging, chemicals, and consumer goods, and discover how ¹⁴C results support certification programs. Participants will gain a clear understanding of the analytical and regulatory context surrounding biobased content verification, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) credibility, and market transparency.
