PAS 2060:2014 is being officially withdrawn from use on November 30, 2025. It is being replaced by ISO 14068-1:2023. Royale® has proactively transitioned to ISO 14068-1:2023 to align with the most up-to-date standards for claims of carbon neutrality.
PAS 2060:2014 is being officially withdrawn on November 30, 2025. In December 2024, Royale® tissue products were verified to ISO 14068-1:2023. During the first half of 2025 products previously labeled using the PAS 2060:2014 standard will be phased out. During this time, there may be dual packaging (with both certifications) in market. We are doing so to minimize packaging wastage during this transition. Given that there is no change to the carbon neutral status of Royale® products following the ISO 14068-1:2023 standard during this transition period, consumers can be assured that the products they are using remain carbon neutral.
No. Carbon neutrality has been achieved without the use of external offsets.
