Manufacturing
Manufacturing and producing organisations are the most benefitted by the insights from LCAs and carbon footprint. Design- and material choices have the biggest potential for sustainable impact.
The manufacturing sector is a major driver of global carbon emissions, with embedded carbon in products and raw materials making up a significant share of its environmental footprint. For many companies, Scope 3.1 emissions from purchased goods and services are the largest contributor to their total footprint, especially as they dig deeper into their supply chains.
At Hedgehog, we help manufacturers, suppliers, and industry stakeholders understand and reduce their environmental impact through lifecycle assessments (LCA's), carbon footprinting, and strategic sustainability insights. Our expertise includes:
- LCA-based carbon accounting to identify emission hotspots and optimise material choices.
- Scope 3.1 data strategies, moving from spend-based to supplier-specific insights.
- Carbon reduction planning, ensuring alignment with CSRD, SBTi, and net-zero commitments.
- Circular economy strategies, improving material efficiency and preparing for regulations like the Digital Product Passport (DPP).
With our deep knowledge of manufacturing processes, supply chains, and sustainability regulations, we guide companies towards data-driven, measurable impact reduction.
