Essential Data Points

At minimum, we need:

  • Product name (what you call the product internally), ISICS code and UN Product Classification Code

    • UNCPC: If unknown, follow this link and click on the "CSV (Readme)" link in the latest version of the codes (you want to click on the "En"). This takes you to the list of codes then filter by relevant category.

  • Emissions per functional unit (e.g. kgCO2e emissions per kg of product)

  • Methodology/coverage of the SKU carbon footprint (e.g. Raw Material, Processing and/or Manufacturing, etc.)

  • Indication & evidence of assurance

  • While not required, sharing also ‘PACT conformant data fields’ (e.g. land related emissions, etc.) is considered best practice.

  • Supporting documentation and methodology reports
