Why the Math Works for Partners
CBAM financial enforcement began January 2026. The first certificate surrender deadline is September 30, 2027. Every non-EU manufacturer exporting covered goods to the EU needs a verified embedded carbon record — and needs it now. The demand is not discretionary. It is regulatory.
