Verified Climate Benefits
You finance carbon removals that have been quantified and verified against a project-specific baseline. Credits are issued only for additional carbon sequestration achieved beyond this baseline scenario.
When you purchase carbon credits from Swedish forests, you help finance verified carbon removals in actively managed production forests. Each carbon credit represents one tonne of CO₂e that has been removed from the atmosphere and stored as carbon in living tree biomass, subject to a defined monitoring period.
By purchasing carbon credits, you assign economic value to verified carbon sequestration. This creates financial incentives for forest owners to integrate climate benefits into long-term forest management decisions, alongside timber production, biodiversity conservation and other forestry objectives.
Your purchase represents a voluntary climate contribution beyond your organisation’s value chain. It complements, but does not replace, your own emissions reduction efforts. Greenhouse gas emissions must continue to be measured, reported and reduced separately.

Climate benefits should not come at the expense of other environmental values. Our projects combine carbon sequestration with biodiversity conservation, the protection of essential ecosystem functions and mandatory conservation set-asides. Under the certification requirements, at least 5% of the project area must be designated for nature conservation.
Long-term forest management must account for storms, droughts, pests and changing climatic conditions. Our projects therefore integrate risk management and climate adaptation into long-term carbon sequestration strategies.
Assigning economic value to carbon sequestration creates new incentives for forest owners to consider climate benefits in their long-term management decisions. Management practices are adapted to local forest conditions, while outcomes are monitored and independently verified.
Our approach is based on actively managed forests that both store carbon and produce renewable raw materials. This allows carbon sequestration to be combined with the forest’s long-term role as a source of raw materials for the bio-based economy.
By creating demand for verified carbon removals, you help support the development of a transparent, quality-assured and traceable Swedish carbon credit market. Assigning economic value to carbon sequestration also strengthens the incentives for forest owners to integrate climate benefits into long-term management decisions.
