COMPAL today announced the completion of its three-day Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) Lead Verifier Lead Auditor) training, taught by Lin Wen-Hua of Desbet Verification. In addition to 19 members of COMPAL’s Sustainability team, environmental management and sustainability professionals from Henghao Technology, AcBel Polytech, CastleNet Technology, Allied Circuit, Arcadyan Technology joined the program, bringing total participation to 30.
Delivered as an in-person intensive on October 29, November 5, and November 11, 2025, the program combined classroom sessions with inter-session assignments. Participants brought real product/process cases back to their workplaces for trial implementation and returned to class for review and refinement—sharpening hands-on competence in carbon accounting and verification.
The curriculum covered global policy trends and the latest decarbonization requirements—spanning net-zero roadmaps, international treaty frameworks, the EU Fit for 55 package, and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM)—before moving down to the product level with a systematic walkthrough of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) structures and workflows. Key practical modules included:
· PCF boundary setting and assessment methods
· Life cycle inventory and impact assessment
· Verification strategy, workflow design, and risk assessment
· Practical verification drills and simulations
By unpacking each step of the PCF, participants strengthened their ability to pinpoint emission hotspots across the full life cycle—from raw materials and manufacturing to logistics, use, and end-of-life—and to establish auditable, internally executable verification procedures.
As supply chains demand greater data integrity and auditability, companies must pair regulatory literacy with robust measurement methods and internal controls. This training aligns terminology and verification standards across COMPAL and its strategic partners, laying the groundwork to embed low-carbon design at the product-development stage and to scale circular-economy practices.
COMPAL will continue collaborating with upstream and downstream stakeholders to advance product life-cycle PCF verification and reduction strategies—anchored in circular design and low-carbon supply-chain management—on the path toward a resilient sustainable value chain and the global net-zero goal.
