Your project process
Four easy steps to your product carbon footprint
1. Arrange an information meeting
Learn more about our Product Carbon Footprint solution in an initial consultation. Simply contact us using our form (click the button) to discuss the PCF for your products.
2. Kick-off and data query
During the kick-off online meeting, we will discuss the product to be accounted for and define which data is required to calculate the PCF. You then submit this data to us via a structured data query.
3. Precise calculation
We review your submitted data for plausibility and calculate the greenhouse gas emissions for your product carbon footprint according to recognized standards. We then prepare the results of the carbon footprint in your PCF report.
4. Handover of results
The results of your Product Carbon Footprint are presented in a clear report. You will receive a detailed PDF report including a description of the methodology and, optionally, a visual web report for your customers and employees. This allows you to report transparently and auditably to all stakeholders.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the results of the Precision-Product Carbon Footprint (P-PCF)?
The results of your Product Carbon Footprint are presented clearly in the PCF report. You receive a detailed PDF report including a methodology description and, optionally, a visual web report for your customers and employees. This allows you to report transparently and auditably to all stakeholders.
How long does it take until we receive the results?
You will receive the results of your Product Carbon Footprint within an average of four weeks. Typically, one to two weeks are sufficient for data collection. We then need approximately two weeks for the calculation and preparation of the report.
Can we map available emission data from our business partners?
Yes, existing emission data from business partners, suppliers or purchased products can be taken into account directly.
Do we have the data needed for the project?
Experience has shown that almost all of the data required for CO2 calculations is available in your company's purchasing department (e.g., raw materials) or accounting department (e.g., energy). During and after the kickoff meeting, we will discuss what data you have available and how any remaining gaps can be pragmatically closed.
