SGS announces the acquisition of Aster Global Environmental Solutions, Inc., an industry-leading company focused on validation and verification of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and offsets, as well as forestry, ecosystem, and corporate and social responsibility services. Founded in 2019, Aster Global broadens the GHG services available to clients in North America and globally with key accreditations and capabilities in this sector. It adds 25 talented employees to SGS.

With ever-increasing concerns about climate change, new regulations, legislation, and consumer demands, sustainability must be front and center of every organization. To address these needs, SGS launched Impact Now for sustainability, a comprehensive suite of services providing tailored solutions to assist clients in achieving their specific sustainability goals. Aster Global is a strategic addition to this platform and SGS's solid expertise and commitment to sustainability.

This acquisition will further contribute to achieving SGS's Strategy 27 and leverage the company's unique strengths to respond to the megatrends driving growth in the Testing, Inspection, and Certification industry.

Géraldine Picaud, CEO of SGS, commented: ”Aster Global is a globally recognized brand name in the greenhouse gas space. Its broad client base and international activities complement our leadership in sustainability. With Aster Global as part of the SGS family, we broaden our Impact Now for sustainability platform and our ability to keep pace with the increasing global demand for confidence in greenhouse gas and sustainability disclosures.”
