CarbonCloud
CarbonCloud is a Swedish cloud platform that calculates the carbon footprint of food and beverage products from a bill of materials, using its own database of emission data. It also lets companies invite suppliers to add primary data and produces reports for SBTi FLAG and carbon labels. It is sold to food brands, retailers, wholesalers and ingredient producers rather than to restaurants.

What it does
Automated Scope 3 calculations
Uses AI to match a bill of materials to the CarbonCloud emissions database and aggregates Scope 3 emissions across a portfolio.

Covers carbon footprints for more than 50,000 products and ingredients, including over 20,000 crops and animal ingredients; a free ClimateHub account gives access to the database.
Supplier engagement
Invites suppliers with automated requests, reminders and data templates, and validates their inputs before they update footprints.
Product carbon footprint calculation and labelling
Calculates product footprints to GHG Protocol and ISO 14067, with breakdowns for Scopes 1, 2 and 3, and communicates results through carbon labels.
SBTi FLAG reporting
Sets baselines, tracks reduction targets and splits emissions into FLAG and non-FLAG categories.
Hotspot and scenario analysis
Identifies emission hotspots and models the effect of changes such as switching ingredients or suppliers.
Supply chain mapping
Maps a product's supply chain from farm to shelf, with traceable technical reports for each data point.
Reporting outputs
