Verification of Sustainable Interior (HI-label)

Why verify the interior of your premises for Sustainable Interior?

The Sustainable Interior criteria cover the entire interior of your premises and have been developed to support and contribute to increasing the level of circularity and reuse. Working with Sustainable Interior increases your awareness and competence and equips you for increased sustainability requirements including reporting and accounting. The value a HI label can provide among others is:

• Increased property value 
• Reduced costs for the interior of your premises
• Promotion of your sustainability work 
• Contribution to sustainability goals; increased value for environment, economy and social factors 
• Support for increased legislative and reporting requirements 

By letting RISE, as an independent third party, verify and HI-label your premises, you increase the credibility of your sustainability work. Verification of Sustainable Interior is based on the international standards ISO/IEC 17029:2019 and ISO 14024:2018.

Verification process

RISE verifies how your company follows and complies with the criteria in Sustainable Interior. A review of documents and interviews with employees are carried out on site at the premises, in order to be able to assess whether the company fulfils the requirement criteria of the Sustainable Interior Criteria Document version 1.0. The criteria have been developed in a project in collaboration with various actors with research as a basis and you can freely access the criteria document, which is published publicly on the DiVA portal and at Hållbar Interiör. When the verification is completed and approved, RISE issues a verification statement and an HI label.

Deliveries

After successful completion of the verification, your company will receive a verification statement and an HI label, showing that the interior of your premises fulfils the requirement criteria of Sustainable Interior.
