Elementary, Mr. Watson: The Display Revolution, Now With Fewer Tiny Keys
STARTEAM is proud to announce that its PCB Carbon Footprint Calculator has successfully achieved ISO 14067 certification following a successful audit by BSI. This milestone strengthens our position as a reliable partner for our customers.
ISO 14067 is the internationally recognised standard for quantifying and reporting the carbon footprint of products. Certification confirms that our methodology meets strict requirements for transparency, consistency, and data integrity. For customers operating in complex global supply chains, this level of verification is no longer optional. It is expected.
What This Means for Our Customers
The certification directly enhances how we support procurement teams, engineers, and sustainability managers:
- Verified carbon data
Our PCB carbon footprint calculations are independently validated, ensuring alignment with global environmental standards.
- Seamless integration
PCF data is automatically included in our quotations, reducing administrative effort and simplifying decision-making.
- Audit-ready documentation
Customers requesting ISO 14067-compliant reporting can rely on consistent, traceable, and certification-backed data.
- Improved supply chain transparency
Enables better ESG reporting and supports carbon reduction strategies across the electronics lifecycle.
Built on Strong Collaboration
This achievement reflects strong cross-functional teamwork. Special recognition goes to Frederik Schmidt, Project Lead, supported by Martin Schneider, Chief Technology Officer, who initiated the project and provided engineering guidance, and Arianna Ji, Senior Sustainability Manager, who led the audit coordination. Their expertise and commitment were critical throughout the certification process. The BSI audit was completed efficiently, demonstrating the robustness of our system and internal processes.
Driving Sustainable PCB Manufacturing
As sustainability requirements continue to evolve, STARTEAM remains focused on delivering practical, standards-based solutions. The ISO 14067 certification is a key step in helping our customers measure, manage, and reduce their carbon impact with confidence.
We will continue to enhance our capabilities to support more sustainable PCB sourcing and manufacturing worldwide.
