Benefits

Calculate your PCF in 30-60 seconds with AI

Companies are increasingly under pressure to provide emissions data for their products. At the same time, product portfolios consist of thousands of variants with complex materials and supply chains. Global Changer helps to efficiently calculate Product Carbon Footprints and identify emissions hotspots. For each PCF, it takes only 30-60 seconds.

Start where your data is today

Already with a URL or description, our AI captures your product, supplements missing information with well-founded assumptions, and assigns appropriate emission factors. Refine the result as soon as more primary data is available.

FEATURES

This is how the PCF calculation works with Global Changer

Using just a few data points, our AI calculates a first Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) within 30-60 seconds. Want to test it yourself? We will calculate two products from your portfolio for free and show you live how structured Product Carbon Footprints are created from your data.

Analyze product data

The AI analyzes information such as URLs, product descriptions, or Bill of Materials (BOM) and identifies materials, processes, and transports.

Match emissions factors

Our AI assigns appropriate emission factors from recognized databases such as ecoinvent and AGRIBALYSE and provides understandable explanations for missing information.

Calculate PCFs according to ISO

The PCF module is based on established LCA standards, and the calculation is carried out along defined system boundaries in accordance with ISO 14067 as well as ISO 14040/44.

Review and adjust results transparently

All AI assignments remain visible and are rated with confidence scores. AI-based assumptions can be verified at any time and replaced with your own primary data.

Identify emission hotspots

The results show which materials, processes, or transport dominate the emissions of a product. In the future, variants can be compared and scenarios modeled.

Scale for large portfolios

Global Changer enables the automated calculation of PCFs for tens of thousands of products and variants. A single PCF can be generated in 30-60 seconds.

What is a Product Carbon Footprint (PCF)?

Icon Here

A Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) calculates the greenhouse gas emissions of an individual product along defined system boundaries, such as from raw material extraction to the factory gate (Cradle-to-Gate). Methodologically, the PCF is based on standards such as ISO 14067 and the LCA fundamentals ISO 14040/44. It makes emission drivers transparent and creates a solid foundation for product decisions, customer requirements, and reporting.
