CarbonQuota turns 5: A milestone in sustainable supply chains

This week marks a proud milestone: CarbonQuota’s 5th birthday. We’re celebrating five years of innovation, partnership and impact in carbon intelligence. Thanks to the dedication of our incredible team, forward thinking customers and trusted partners, we’ve laid a strong foundation for a more transparent and sustainable future for manufacturers in packaging and print, media and logistics and the brands they serve.

But we’re just getting started. Building on everything we’ve learned and achieved together, here’s what we want to be true by 2030:

An automatic carbon footprint and environmental declaration for every business transaction.

We believe sustainability should be embedded, not bolted on. So far, we’ve delivered 1.6 million transaction level declarations – and this is only the beginning.

Full supply chain co-operation. 

Climate action demands collaboration. We’ve already enabled over 200 organisations to connect, share data and act up and down their supply chains.

A supply chain connected by data. 

Seamless integration is essential. We’re proud to now have 15 integrations with major platforms, giving us direct access to manufacturers, distributors, and global corporations.

Eco-design as standard.

Sustainability shouldn’t come at the expense of cost, quality or service – it should enhance them. We’ve supported the re-engineering of dozens of products and empowered our clients to make better decisions across thousands more.

Honest, science-backed claims.

Integrity matters. Every day, we help our clients become more resilient to scrutiny and prove they are making real, measurable progress.

 

CarbonQuota was born out of a desire to make carbon and environmental data practical, accurate, and accessible. Five years on, we’re more committed than ever to accelerating a world where low carbon choices are obvious, easy, and embedded.

Navigating the EU’s new CBAM law for packaging
