Sep. 18 2026
Helping chemical and industrial supply chains strengthen transparency, due diligence, and continuous improvement
Bureau Veritas, a global leader in testing, inspection, certification and sustainability services, is pleased to announce its capability to deliver Together for Sustainability (TfS) audits, enabling companies to assess and enhance sustainability performance across their global supplier networks through one of the chemical industry's most recognized sustainability assessment frameworks.
As sustainability due diligence requirements continue to evolve, organizations are seeking more efficient and harmonized approaches to evaluate supplier performance. Through its participation in the TfS ecosystem, Bureau Veritas now supports suppliers and procurement organizations with independent sustainability audits aligned with TfS requirements, helping drive greater transparency, risk management, and continuous improvement throughout the value chain.

Businesses today face increasing expectations from customers, investors and regulators to demonstrate responsible supply chain practices. By offering Together for Sustainability audits, Bureau Veritas is providing organizations with a recognized framework to better understand their sustainability performance and identify opportunities for continuous improvement. This addition further strengthens our ability to support clients on their sustainability journey and build more resilient supply chains.
Unlike certification programs, TfS audits are designed as sustainability performance assessments that help organizations evaluate their practices and identify areas for enhancement. The approach supports continuous improvement while providing greater visibility into sustainability performance across supply chains.
Together for Sustainability (TfS) is a leading global initiative created by major chemical companies to promote sustainable procurement and harmonize supplier sustainability assessments across industries. Today, the initiative brings together over 60 member companies with a significant global footprint and influence on supply chain sustainability practices.
The introduction of TfS audits further reinforces Bureau Veritas' commitment to helping clients navigate evolving sustainability challenges while driving transparency, accountability and responsible business practices throughout their value chains. With this new capability, Bureau Veritas continues to expand its Sustainability Solutions offering under Transition Services, enabling businesses to address growing stakeholder expectations and advance their responsible sourcing ambitions with confidence.
