At SGS, we have extensive experience and expertise in testing, inspection, certification and verification for solid biomass. We provide solutions along the entire value chain, helping you to ensure transparency, demonstrate compliance, improve quality and maximize profits. Pioneering in the development of systems that recognize biomass sustainability, our verifications act as independent documentation that products are sustainably produced and supplied. They can be customized to suit end-user requirements and meet the demands of local legislation. Across Canada and the United States, we deliver comprehensive solid biomass services at source and throughout the supply chain, including all export and import points. And because our standardized reporting considers the defined industry regulations, we make commodity trading and deliveries less contentious and open to dispute. Testing and rapid reporting services, based in Delta, British Columbia, offer Canada’s biomass industry quick and easy access to international markets. From our Standards Council of Canada (SCC) and ISO/IEC accredited laboratory we provide an extensive suite of analytical services for soli biofuel samples. We have the latestd technologies, a state-of- the art laboratory, and experienced staff. Operating seven days a week, to match the port’s loading schedules, we conduct testing, supported by rapid reporting using a CCLAS laboratory management system. Our laboratory in Delta, BC is also the only approved laboratory in Canada to perform ENplus® certification testing services. In the United States, we deliver a range of biomass services to support strong domestic demand and busy international markets. Operating a network of 17 facilities across the United States, our local experts, ensure the quality and quantity of biomass and biomass products for clients the world over.
