After completing the product carbon footprint assessment, Giant Group engaged third-party verifier AFNOR Asia Ltd.—an internationally recognized certification body—to verify the results. The product passed verification and received an official carbon footprint declaration, enabling us to apply for and earn the Carbon Footprint Label issued by Taiwan’s Ministry of Environment.

This recognition makes the TCR ADVANCED PRO 0D DI the first carbon fiber road bike in the industry to carry a certified carbon footprint label. It also signifies that the product has undergone one of the most thorough carbon accounting processes in the bicycle industry to date.

The Carbon Footprint Label helps disclose the total greenhouse gas emissions generated throughout a product’s life cycle. It increases transparency across each production stage and encourages manufacturers to redesign high-emission processes, while also empowering consumers to make more climate-conscious choices.

This carbon footprint assessment of the TCR ADVANCED PRO 0D DI includes detailed documentation of its full life cycle and manufacturing activities. It not only sets a benchmark for evaluating the carbon footprint of other bicycle models but also offers valuable guidance for future product development. Most importantly, it marks a key step forward in Giant Group’s broader sustainability journey.
