Calculating product carbon footprint as a supplier:
cradle-to-gate for SMEs
Your client no longer asks only for your company emissions, but for the carbon footprint per product. With verified.supply you calculate the cradle-to-gate emissions per declared unit — kg, unit, m² or litre — without an expensive LCA study.

Product carbon without an expensive LCA
Why clients ask for product-level carbon data
Your client's scope 3 category 1 (purchased goods) requires emissions per product or service, not just per company. Large retailers and OEMs are increasingly pushing for this.
Cradle-to-gate: feasible for SMEs
A full LCA (life cycle assessment) costs €5,000-€20,000 per product. The cradle-to-gate approach (from raw material to your factory gate) is considerably simpler: your own energy consumption plus an emission factor for your raw materials, divided by your production volume.
What verified.supply offers
Enter the raw material intensity and your energy consumption per product. verified.supply calculates the kg CO₂e per declared unit (kg, unit, m², litre) with the correct emission factors for your country and reporting year.
Per kg, unit or m²
The cradle-to-gate system boundary covers everything up to your factory gate. Your client adds their own processing and transport on top — the most widely used and accepted method for B2B supply.
