Your questions answered
Following guidance from the GHG Protocol and ISO 14067 standards, we first define the product to be measured (e.g. 1 finished unit of product X) and the boundaries (or scope) of the assessment - usually cradle-to-grave. We'll then analyse the input/output flows of the product (things like ingredients or materials on the input side, and waste on the output side). You'll then input data relating to those processes, and we'll calculate emissions on that basis.
It depends on the sector and your geography. The EU is rolling out regulation on Digital Product Passports which mandate product-level impact assessments for some products. However, other businesses may not be directly affected, but still required to submit product-level data as part of tenders or client requests.
Once you've measured your product-level emissions, you can easily share the results using your product impact page - an online dashboard showing a full breakdown of the product's emissions and key hotspots. Simply share a link, or add a QR code to labeling or packaging.
Both are standards that specify how product-level emissions should be calculated, with some differences.
The GHG Protocol is a framework/guideline (flexible, widely adopted, covers organizations, value chains, and products).
ISO 14067 is a formal standard (more prescriptive, mainly for product-level footprints, often used for certification/verification).
Using our Product Footprint module, you can calculate product-level emissions as soon as you have the data ready to input.
