Sustainability
The Challenge
As companies increasingly focus on reducing indirect and direct emissions throughout their value chains, the request for accurate carbon footprint is increasing. By using industry averages, companies are failing to create a competitive edge.
The Solution
Use Astrada’s award-winning application to calculate the carbon footprint for each produced product, considering the actual route and product structure. Astrada PCF offers full traceability through your entire process, including amount and emission type per production step for each product.
This is Astrada PCF
A tool that covers multiple needs
With Astrada PCF, you can easily measure, model, validate, and report the carbon footprint of your products in a user-friendly, all-in-one application. Whether you're in manufacturing, logistics, or any other industry, our web-based tool is always tailored to meet your unique needs.
Easy to use
The user can both calculate the carbon footprint for an existing product or simulate the carbon footprint for a new product or production route.
​
Check how the use of a different product structure or production route affects the total carbon footprint by substituting one step for another or changing the geographical route. Once the user is satisfied with the route and the product, they can download a pre-designed certificate.
Transparency for you and your customers
With Astrada PCF, you obtain complete transparency and traceability, both within the calculation model and in the results. Transparency is of central importance for carbon footprint reporting and analysis, both internally and externally.
​
Within the organization, internal transparency enables a thorough understanding of where emissions are generated and how they impact operations. Regarding external interactions, Astrada PCF provides you with the ability to offer your customers well-informed choices by clearly displaying the differences in both cost and carbon footprint between various products. This not only provides customers with insight but also lends your company credibility and reliability.
