While precise regional data is unavailable, it can be inferred that regions with high industrial activity and stringent regulatory frameworks, such as North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, will likely represent the major market shares. The forecast period of 2025-2033 presents significant opportunities for market expansion, as businesses prioritize compliance and seek to demonstrate their commitment to quality and sustainability. Continued technological advancements and evolving regulatory landscapes will further drive the market's future growth trajectory.

Since its release in the mid-1990s, close to 37 000 facilities have been certified to ISO 14001, the international voluntary standard for environmental management systems. Yet, despite claims that the standard can be readily adapted to very different corporate and geographic settings, its take-up has been highly geographically variable. This paper contributes to a growing body of work concerned with explaining the uneven diffusion of ISO 14001 at the global level. Drawing from the existing theoretical and empirical literature we develop a series of hypotheses about how various economic, market, and regulatory factors influence the national count of ISO 14001 certifications. These hypotheses are then tested using econometric estimation techniques with data for a panel of 142 developed and developing countries. We find that per capita ISO 14001 counts are positively correlated with income per capita, stock of foreign direct investment, exports of goods and services to Europe and Japan, and pressure from civil society. Conversely, productivity and levels of state intervention are negatively correlated. The paper finishes by offering a number of recommendations to policymakers concerned with accelerating the diffusion of voluntary environmental standards.

Despite their availability to firms across the world, uptake of global voluntary standards has proceeded unevenly across countries over time. In this paper we seek to provide new insights into how geography shapes these spatiotemporal variations, focusing on two leading examples of codified voluntarism: ISO 14001 and the Global Compact (GC). In an advance on previous quantitative studies, which have analyzed domestic and nondomestic influences separately, we examine how the internal attributes of place condition' the influence of transnational spatial dependencies. We find that higher levels of ISO 14001 certification in other economies are more likely to spill over (via transnational linkages) into higher domestic uptake of the standard in wealthier economies, while domestic receptivity to the influence of higher GC adoptions abroad is greater in more democratic countries. Another important advance on previous studies is that we examine the influence of a larger number of measures of transnational economic linkage. Providing evidence oftrading-up' and investing-up' dynamics, we show that higher densities of ISO 14001 certificates and GC participants in a country's export and inward foreign direct investment partners are associated with higher levels of domestic uptake of the respective standard. We also find tentative evidence ofvisiting-up' dynamics associated with the cross-border movement of businesspeople.

Businesses make a significant contribution to development and quality of life through the creation of wealth, jobs and added value, but not without consequences for theenvironment. Voices were immediately raised to curb the perverse effects of this development. To this end, the World Standards Organisation (ISO) has launched the international standard ISO 14001 "environmental management" to provide a reference framework for the implementation of environmental management. A number of studies have been carried out around the world to assess the impact of the implementation of this standard on business performance, but very few have been carried out in developing countries, such as Algeria. This contribution therefore aims to enrich thedebate on this issue. In this paper, we present the results of empirical research carried out on a sample of Algerian companies certified to the ISO 14001/2015 standard. Overall, the results show that this impact is effective in terms of controlling environmental aspects, but remains questionable when it comes to companies' economic imperatives.

This article focuses on the Global 500, which are the world’s largest companies by revenue, to examine the factors and dynamics internal to companies that motivate some corporations, but not others, to engage in transnational climate governance. Empirical results based on multilevel mixed-effects analyses, which separately identify the relative weight of firm and country-level factors, suggest that the likelihood that a firm participates in transnational climate governance (TCG) is higher when there exists a “policy supporter” who champions sustainability policies and when a company adopts explicit sustainability practices, such as the incorporation of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) principles. Voluntary climate action and carbon disclosure are more likely to take place when a company has a large asset base and certifies with the ISO 14001 environmental management standard. Moreover, the level of civil liberties that corporations enjoy in their respective country of origin is associated with participation in TCG. A decomposition of the variance indicates that firm-level factors account for a majority of the variance in TCG participation. This study has implications for climate change governance and policies, which have increasingly focused on concrete climate solutions and innovations by nonstate and substate actors.
