TfS-aligned product carbon footprints for chemicals

Generate audit-ready PCFs for chemical products, without (re)building complex LCA models.

Aligned with standards backed by leading chemical companies.

Why TfS-aligned PCF data matters now

Your customers increasingly rely on your data. Across automotive, consumer goods, and manufacturing, requirements are evolving:

  • Scope 3 reporting is expanding under regulations such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)
  • Buyers request product-level carbon footprints (PCFs)
  • Together for Sustainability (TfS), part of the Chem-X consortium backed by leading chemical companies, is established as the common framework for calculation

This shift reflects a move toward consistent, comparable data across value chains. Data that isn’t aligned cannot be used. Without scalability, it becomes difficult to keep pace. And without alignment to industry-backed standards, it risks being rejected.

What the compliance pack delivers

Instead of building PCFs from scratch, you get:

  • A TfS-aligned product carbon footprint model
  • Pre-defined calculation rules and datasets connected to secondary data from the latest ecoinvent version
  • Documentation explaining the model structure and how to use it

You provide product and process data. The model applies a consistent structure, helping ensure results are comparable, consistent, and aligned with TfS expectations.

What you can achieve with the compliance pack

  • Deliver PCFs your customers can use
    Meet TfS expectations and respond to data requests faster.
  • Scale across complex product portfolios
    Generate results for hundreds or thousands of SKUs.
  • Handle frequent formulation changes
    Update inputs without rebuilding models.
  • Support R&D and sourcing decisions
    Identify high-impact feedstocks and processes to inform improvement efforts.

Why use this compliance pack

  • Avoid rebuilding models for every product
    Skip time-consuming interpretation of TfS guidelines.
  • Ensure consistency across your portfolio
    Standardized methodology enables comparability.
  • Be ready for audits and customer scrutiny
    Transparent assumptions and documentation included.
  • Built on an industry-backed standard
    Aligned with TfS, part of the Chem-X consortium adopted by leading chemical companies.

How it works

  1. Start with the TfS-aligned model
  2. Input product data, including feedstocks, energy, and processes

  3. Generate PCFs at scale
