Our scope encompasses every step along the supply chain of products, from cradle to grave, to provide a holistic assessment of emissions.

Each data point is individually researched and backed by a scientific source, and we assign a reliability score to ensure the credibility of our calculations. Our calculation methodology is reviewed and approved by LCA experts.

Measuring your company’s carbon footprint is essential for several reasons:

1. Environmental Responsibility: Understanding your company’s carbon footprint helps you identify the areas where you have the most significant environmental impact. This knowledge enables you to implement targeted strategies to reduce emissions and showcase your commitment to sustainability.

2. Regulatory Compliance: Many jurisdictions require companies to report their greenhouse gas emissions as part of their environmental regulations. Accurate measurement of your carbon footprint helps ensure compliance with these requirements.

3. Cost Savings: By identifying and targeting areas with high emissions, you can often find opportunities to reduce energy consumption, waste, and overall operational costs.

4. Reputation and Brand Image: Demonstrating a commitment to sustainability can improve your company’s reputation and brand image, attracting environmentally conscious customers, investors, and employees.

5. Competitive Advantage: Companies with a lower carbon footprint can differentiate themselves from competitors and position themselves as leaders in sustainability, which can be a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

6. Risk Management: Understanding your company’s carbon footprint allows you to better anticipate and manage potential risks, such as regulatory changes or fluctuations in energy prices, which can impact your business operations.
