Shin-Etsu Green Silicones (SEGS) Series

These silicone products contribute to carbon neutrality (CN). Production has begun in Thailand, and metal silicon, which reduces CO₂ emissions, is used as the siloxane raw material. Energy-saving measures have been implemented through various production process improvements, and emissions have been reduced throughout the supply chain. Residual emissions are covered by certified carbon credits. These products have undergone validation of their product carbon footprint (CFP) based on ISO 14067 and have been certified as carbon neutral by the public organization Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO).

Features

This is a carbon-neutral product that also utilizes carbon credits from Thailand’s voluntary emissions reduction system, T-VER.
This product is TGO Certified

Thailand’s carbon credit system T-VER and CN certification

T-VER (Thailand Voluntary Emission Reduction Program) is a carbon credit system in Thailand that has been in operation since 2014 by the Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO), a public institution under the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.
CN Certification is a program run by TGO that certifies offsets using TGO carbon credits. CN Certification is awarded when 100% of emissions are offset.

TGO CN certificate
Products offset by carbon credits
will be accompanied by a TGO CN certification
certificate.

ISO 14067 Certificate
ISO 14067 is an international standard for calculating the
carbon footprint of products. By undergoing verification by an
independent third-party organization, we are able to provide
objective and reliable information.
