Impact Laboratories

Impact Laboratories, a subsidiary of the non-profit organization My Green Lab, focuses on providing independent verification services to promote sustainable practices in laboratories. The company serves the academic and biotech sectors, aiming to reduce the environmental impact of labs, which typically consume significantly more energy than standard office buildings. By offering third-party certification, Impact Laboratories ensures that labs adhere to international best practices, thereby enhancing their environmental performance. The business model revolves around certifying labs to meet the My Green Lab Certification standards, which have been recognized as a critical indicator of progress by the UN Race to Zero Breakthrough Outcomes Campaign. This certification is endorsed by the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) and is a key component in the UN's goal to have 95% of biotech and pharma labs certified at the highest level by 2030. Impact Laboratories generates revenue through certification services, targeting leading scientific companies committed to sustainability goals.
