Carbon Industry Code of Conduct

Carbon Sync is proud to be a signatory to the Australian Carbon Industry Code of Conduct. The Code is a voluntary code implemented by the Carbon Market Institute (CMI), which Carbon Sync is a member of.

The Australian Carbon Code of Conduct, a comprehensive guide, outlines the principles and best practices for  measuring, reducing, and offsetting greenhouse gas emissions. It is designed to empower project developers and carbon project stakeholders with the knowledge and tools to make a positive impact.

Carbon Sync has signed up to this voluntary code of conduct to signal that we agree to meet the Code’s expectations and standards. We wish to signal this to our stakeholders, including project owners, land managers, industry bodies and Native Title Holders, as we recognise their integral role in our operations. 

Being a signatory means that Carbon Sync aspires to deliver industry-best practices when developing our products and services. We have considered all the risks involved in establishing and managing a carbon project and designed our carbon projects to minimise those risks for all relevant stakeholders. Being a signatory to this code ensures that certain standards for operating a carbon project have been met.

The Carbon Code of Conduct provides carbon farming organisations with access to best practices in measuring, reducing, and offsetting greenhouse gas emissions, which can help improve their sustainability initiatives.

By adopting the Carbon Code of Conduct, Carbon Sync seeks to build stronger relationships with stakeholders, including investors, customers, and employees.  

The CMI website provides more information about your rights as a carbon project participant and provides guidance for consumers about working with Carbon Code signatories.

We are committed to providing full and transparent information when presenting our offering to potential customers. This means we give farmers all the information they may need to make an informed decision. The Australian Carbon Code of Conduct also has a robust complaints handling procedure to support farmers, ensuring their confidence in our operations.
