Compliant with the standards your customers expect
What is actually happening
Large companies must now report their suppliers' emissions.
That means yours.
Under EU law, companies with 1,000+ employees must include their supply chain's CO₂ data in their annual sustainability report. The Dutch Chamber of Commerce is direct:
“Large businesses are required to report on the sustainability of their suppliers. Expect questions from larger businesses that buy your products.”
KVK — Dutch Chamber of Commerce, 2026
The questionnaire arrives
Your account manager at a large customer sends a sustainability form. Line 12: "Please provide your Scope 1 and 2 emissions for the past financial year." You have no data.
The deadline is real
Your customer has a reporting deadline. They need your numbers for their own EU disclosure. "We will need to find an alternative supplier" is a sentence that has been said.
The ones with data win
Businesses that can answer the CO₂ question score higher in tenders, qualify for better financing, and are harder to replace. A verified footprint is a commercial asset.

What your customer is actually asking for
Scope 1, 2 & 3 — in plain language
A delivery van at 80,000 km/yr ≈ 12 tonnes CO₂
An office at 40,000 kWh/yr ≈ 10 tonnes CO₂
Often 70%+ of total emissions. €2M in purchases ≈ 400+ tonnes CO₂
Why not a spreadsheet or a consultant?
Most businesses try one of three approaches. Here is what actually happens.
