Certifications

Timberlove® has been independently verified by TÜV SÜD as containing more than 90% biogenic carbon relative to its total carbon content — the highest category officially recognised by current certification schemes.

Although TÜV SÜD reports results in defined ranges, Timberlove’s formulation is built entirely from biogenic carbon–based inputs. This means the product’s actual biogenic carbon content is effectively 100%, giving customers confidence in its renewable origin and its contribution to lower-impact, sustainable material choices.

In addition, Timberlove® has officially obtained ASTM D6866 certification, confirming its 100% biogenic carbon content.

This certification independently verifies that Timberlove® is made entirely from renewable, plant-based carbon sources — a major milestone in Chematek’s commitment to developing sustainable, low-carbon materials for the built environment.
