Product Emissions on Ecosphera

At Ecosphera, our mission is to enable businesses to navigate the complexities of carbon footprint management with precision and ease.

Understanding Product Emissions on Ecosphera

A crucial aspect of this journey is understanding the composition of product emissions. This page is dedicated to breaking down the components that constitute product emissions, providing you with a comprehensive understanding of how each product's ecological footprint is calculated and managed within our platform.

What are Product Emissions?

  • Product emissions refer to the total greenhouse gas emissions associated with the production and delivery of a specific product or part.
  • This encompasses emissions from raw material consumptions, production processes, transportation, and any other activities directly related to the creation and distribution of the reference.
  • Understanding these emissions is vital for businesses aiming to minimize their environmental impact and achieve sustainability goals.

Components of Product Emissions

Product emissions on Ecosphera are meticulously calculated by considering various factors, ensuring a detailed and accurate measurement of each product's environmental footprint.

Description

List all your raw material and outsourcing suppliers along with their addresses. This data is used to calculate the upstream transport emissions associated with bringing raw materials to your production site.

Impact

Enables accurate accounting of transport-related CO2 emissions.

Description

Detail all machines involved in the production process, including their name, electrical and gas power, and usage factors. This information helps incalculating the emissions associated with manufacturing processes.

Impact

Provides insight into the carbon footprint of production machinery and operations.

Description

Listing all clients and delivery locations helps in calculating downstream transport emissions—those associated with delivering the finished parts to their final destinations.
