Product Footprint

What does the PRODUCT FOOTPRINT solution do?

The SupplyOn Product Footprint solution enables the exchange of sustainability related product data such as Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) between supplier and customer.

In the development phase, the focus is on eco-engineering with the aim, on the one hand, of testing different product variants and, on the other, of making manufacturing as low-emission as possible by using suitable production processes.

For series parts, the PCF can be updated on-demand or as part of the annual price request.
and agreed reduction targets can be checked. In this way, emissions can be further optimized even after start-of-production.
