Frequently asked questions

Does UL Solutions provide validation and verification for environmental impact, sustainability performance and cybersecurity claims?

Yes. We offer customized, science-based validation and verification services such as greenhouse gas (GHG) verification, environmental product declaration (EPD) verification, product carbon footprint verification and can issue recognizable UL Marks for programs such as GREENGUARD Certification, ECOLOGO® Certification, Environmental Claims Validation, and UL Verified Healthy Buildings. Third-party validation and verification add clarity and confidence that can help you stand out in the marketplace.

What are the benefits of third-party validation or independent verification of claims?

Discerning buyers are wary of unsupported product claims. Going through the validation and verification process demonstrates your commitment to transparency, which can attract new customers and help build your brand’s reputation.

What is the process for verification of marketing claims?

UL Solutions creates a custom protocol for evaluating each marketing claim, thoroughly tests or evaluates claims, and issues a verification that can be promoted on products, packaging or promotional materials. Claims must be reassessed periodically to maintain verification.

Where can I get more information about a verification or validation claim?

We maintain two comprehensive resources: UL Verify and UL SPOT. For information on environmental and sustainability claims, review the UL SPOT’s database of more than 130,000 products. For verification programs for performance and connectivity, please consult UL Verify.

Are there guidelines for how to use a UL Mark for verification or validation?

Yes. When a customer’s product, process, facility or system earns a UL Mark, they receive a customized set of guidelines that explain how, when and where to display these highly recognizable symbols. If a customer is found in violation of these guidelines, the verification or validation may be revoked. By maintaining a clear set of standards regarding usage, we maintain the value and transparency of UL Marks, such as UL Verified Healthy Building Mark, UL Verified IoT Device Security Rating and UL Product Carbon Footprint Verification Mark. More information on these Marks and how to use them can be found in the Marks and Label Hub.
