ISO 59040:2025

Product Circularity Data Sheet (PCDS)

Empowering Transparent Circular Economy Information Exchange

QSZ Certification is proud to offer certification and support for ISO 59040:2025, the latest standard enabling organizations to advance circular economy practices through the use of the Product Circularity Data Sheet (PCDS). This globally recognized standard establishes a structured methodology for exchanging reliable, verifiable circular economy data across the product life cycle—supporting businesses in building sustainable supplier and acquirer relationships.

 

Despite the continued dominance of linear economic models focused on extraction, production, use, and disposal, ISO 59040 empowers organizations to transition towards a circular economy by fostering transparency, resilience, and sustainability. It offers a standardized framework for reporting product circularity performance, enabling the effective exchange of essential environmental and social data across business-to-business networks. Applicable to organizations of all sizes, sectors, and supply chain roles, the standard also promotes inclusivity through tailored support programs designed to assist SMEs in adopting circular economy practices.

Key Benefits of ISO 59040 Certification

  • Demonstrate commitment to circular economy principles in supplier and acquirer relationships.
  • Enhance transparency and trust by providing verifiable product circularity data.
  • Facilitate sustainable procurement and responsible sourcing aligned with the ISO 59000 family and UN SDGs.
  • Support digital product documentation and interoperability, ensuring consistency across global supply chains.
  • Manage risks and improve resilience by integrating circularity considerations into business operations.
