Carbon handprint calculator

With the carbon handprint calculator, you can compare the climate benefits of your product or service to a comparable solution. Carbon handprint calculations can be a significant advantage in competitive situations and in communicating the climate impact of your solution.

Consumer protection is constantly improving and legislation is becoming stricter. The European Union has banned unfounded environmental claims, and in the future, particular care must be taken when making claims. Our reliable, standards-based tools help your company make calculations in such a way that it will also be possible to communicate them in the future.

What is a carbon handprint?

A carbon handprint describes the reduction in your customer’s climate impact achieved through the solution you offer. When calculating a carbon handprint, care must be taken to ensure that both the baseline and the new solution are calculated correctly and in accordance with standards. Carbon handprint calculations for products and services are based on the ISO 14067 standard. Carbon handprint comparisons are made based on the carbon handprint standard developed by VTT and LUT University.

Why calculate the carbon handprint?

The carbon handprint provides the company with fact-based information to support decision-making and the opportunity to communicate the positive climate impact of your products and services.

Lead with knowledge

Take advantage of being a pioneer in climate matters by using carbon handprint information in management. Use the information to market and sell your product or service, manage your business and develop your strategy.

Rational investments

Finding out the carbon handprint of new investments can strengthen the rationality of the investment decision and increase the credibility of the investment towards financiers as well.

Increase visibility

The world wants to hear about climate-friendly alternatives. Get the attention of customers and the media by communicating reliably about your low-emission product or service and maximizing its visibility.

Strengthen your competitive advantage

When determining the carbon handprint, a baseline must be chosen, encouraging the company to follow the market. It also helps to identify and strengthen your competitive advantage.

Towards an inspiring goal

Increasing the carbon handprint is an inspiring goal and also tied to the company’s financial goals. The more a company manages to sell its low-emission products, the larger the carbon handprint.

Increase sales

Create a spiral of positivity: research, product development, and innovations are needed to make your product better. A climate-friendly product sells better.
