Product Carbon Footprint
The Carbon Footprint of your Product
As pressure increases from legislation, customers, and supply chain partners, accurately measuring the carbon footprint of your product is essential for meeting regulatory requirements and demonstrating environmental responsibility.
A Product Carbon Footprint is a detailed assessment of the greenhouse gas emissions associated with a product throughout its entire life cycle—from raw material extraction, manufacturing, and distribution, through to use and end-of-life disposal. It quantifies key emissions such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, all of which contribute to global warming by trapping heat in the Earth’s atmosphere.
Understanding your product’s carbon footprint is a critical step toward reducing emissions, improving sustainability credentials, and supporting informed product design and procurement decisions.
Following the internationally recognised Greenhouse Gas Protocol Product Life Cycle Standard, AccountCarbon works with you to accurately measure and disclose the full life cycle emissions of your product. From cradle to gate—or cradle to grave—we guide you through every stage, helping you account for upstream and downstream emissions, including those from materials, manufacturing, transport, usage, and disposal.
We ensure your product footprint is calculated with rigour and clarity, enabling you to confidently share results with stakeholders, customers, and regulators.
