Exporters to the EU

Give EU buyers the footprint and ESG data they ask for, with evidence.

Build product carbon footprints with the share of primary data, answer CSRD requests from an ESRS template, and see which EU rules may apply to your company.

The problem

What EU buyers are asking Indian suppliers for

  • EU buyers ask for the carbon footprint of each product, often in their own formats.
  • They want to know how much of a footprint comes from primary data rather than averages.
  • Buyers reporting under CSRD send value-chain questionnaires that ask for evidence, not only numbers.

If your company is also listed in India, the same plant data feeds your BRSR Core GHG and energy disclosures.

Product carbon footprints

A footprint per product, with the share of primary data.

Work out the footprint of each product per unit sold, show how much of it rests on measured data, and send it in the format your buyer asks for. Footprints draw on your plants’ own emissions and your suppliers’ data, so they agree with the rest of your reporting.

See the product carbon footprint module

The data export is PACT-aligned. Sustano does not claim PACT (Pathfinder) conformance or ISO 14067 certification.

Illustrative example

A fictional exporter answers a footprint request

Illustrative: a fictional company. Names and figures are examples only.

  1. A German buyer asks a fictional engineering-goods exporter for the cradle-to-gate footprint of one product, per unit.
  2. The team builds the footprint from four parts: steel, using the supplier’s own footprint; a share of the plant’s emissions; packaging; and inbound transport.
  3. Two parts rest on primary data and two on averages, each with its evidence, and the footprint shows its share of primary data.
  4. The footprint is finalised and sent to the buyer in the format they asked for.
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can our own suppliers send us their footprints?

Yes. A footprint can use a supplier’s own product footprint, and suppliers can send you data and evidence without a login.

Does Sustano prepare CBAM declarations?

No. The regulation tracker indicates whether CBAM may apply to you. Sustano does not prepare CBAM declarations or calculate CBAM embedded emissions.
