Become a partnerCalculate your Product Carbon Footprint (PCF)
Calculate, analyze and optimize your Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) – with VERSO’s modular sustainability platform. Transparent carbon accounting across the entire product lifecycle, sound reduction strategies and measurable climate targets – scalable to meet your needs.
One of the biggest challenges was data granularity, especially when it came to collecting and accessing detailed information. Through close coordination with VERSO, we found practical solutions and are now working together on continuously improving our data quality, including the creation of a PCF.
PCF: From black box to solid decision-making foundation
Product Carbon Footprints are increasingly being requested – by regulations, customers, partners and consumers. Anyone offering products must be able to provide and explain their carbon footprint.
But the implementation is complex: Many tools only generate static PDF reports – the calculation logic remains non-transparent. Isolated solutions prevent integration into the broader sustainability management system.
On the other hand, reliable data for sound decision-making is lacking – and it’s not always clear, how supply chain and processes impact climate targets.
Transparent product emissions as the foundation for decarbonization
Calculate PCF and identify reduction potentials
With the PCF module in the VERSO Climate Hub, you get more than just a PDF export: structured, transparent data as a reliable foundation for sound decisions and effective reduction strategies.
- Flexibly map the product lifecycle: cradle-to-gate or cradle-to-grave
- Collect emissions data for each lifecycle phase and across locations
- Manage product data centrally – saving time and effort
- Access more than 200,000 verified emission factors
- Identify emission-intensive lifecycle phases through data visualization
- Work internationally in multiple languages
- Calculate PCF in accordance with ISO 14067
CSV upload of Bills of Materials (BOMs)
Seamless import of Bills of Materials and supplier data
A single PCF is manageable – hundreds of them are the real challenge. With the CSV upload, that’s exactly what becomes easy: import complete Bills of Materials and supplier data in one step to create a consistent foundation – scalable across entire product portfolios.
- Get started right away with a practical sample file
- Suitable for all life cycle phases
- Updated data automatically syncs to the Climate Hub
- Ideal for large Bills of Materials and complex supply chains
- Automatic validation ensures data accuracy and consistency
Find the right emission factors with a single click
Automated AI mapping of emission factors
The days of tedious manual searches for emission factors are over: the Smart Emission Factor Module takes care of the complex mapping process for you. Your only task: review the results. This saves time, minimizes errors, and ensures reliable data quality.
- AI-based suggestions for matching emission factors plus four alternatives
- Search by weight, volume, quantity, or country information
- Relevant reporting year transmitted automatically
- Mapping quality clearly indicated
- Complete documentation including source, description, and year
Climate management on a platform that grows with your needs
PCF integrated into ESG and supply chain management
As a modular all-in-one sustainability platform, VERSO offers key advantages for calculating and leveraging your Product Carbon Footprint:
- Whether Product Carbon Footprint, Corporate Carbon Footprint, climate controlling, climate risk analysis or supplier engagement – all modules are fully integrated.
- The PCF module can be directly integrated into the Supply Chain Hub to efficiently collect emissions data from suppliers.
- Start from where you are and scale as needed – with optional support from VERSO Services.
