About

The Sustainable Biomass Program (SBP) is a certification scheme designed for biomass, including wood pellets and chips, biochar, biocarbon, and other processed wood-based products, whether used for energy, industry, or beyond.

SBP has developed a certification scheme to provide assurance that biomass is sourced both legally and sustainably, allowing companies in the bioeconomy sector to demonstrate compliance with regulatory requirements, as a minimum. Our certification scheme serves as a clear statement of standards and processes necessary to ensure responsible sourcing and compliance across the supply chain.

We seek to avoid duplication and to be consistent with standards that have overlapping scopes, while not limiting innovation and improvement. Read more here.
