Setup Your Factory In 2 Minutes Or Less
Let’s do this together, create an account for free and see how fast it is to get a carbon report for your first product. The first step is to set up your factory.

Each of these variables unlocks Scope 3 emissions for your customer, by allocating energy consumption to each individual product line, and ultimately to each unit made.
Creating Your First Bulk Material Product In Under 30 Seconds
When you have set up your factory, it is time to create your first product. Today we’re focusing on Bulk Materials. Click Add New Material, Name your produc,t and add in the SKU (which connects it to your customers), and select the factory it is produced at in case you have multiple factories.

A Product is not a Carbon Report, a Product can have unlimited Carbon Reports.
It is important to remember that a Product is not a Carbon Report. A Carbon Report is customer-specific, but a product is a general SKU in your catalog. If you sell the same SKU to many customers, you can create unlimited Carbon Reports for each customer. The main difference between each Carbon Report will be the distance to your customer’s factory and the packaging used to ship your material.
