Packaging & Paper
Hit EPD commitments and accelerate the circular economy.
EU Packaging Regulation and brand-owner pressure require verified EPDs on packaging materials. CarbonBright maps every input and publishes EPDs in minutes — not months.
Why Packaging Manufacturers Are Moving Now
EU Packaging Regulation (PPWR)
All packaging placed on the EU market must meet recyclability requirements by 2030, with LCA-backed eco-design evidence becoming the compliance standard. Packaging without an LCA cannot demonstrate regulatory conformity.
Brand Owner Scope 3 Data Requests
Leading FMCG companies — Unilever, Nestlé, P&G — are requiring verified product carbon footprints from packaging suppliers to meet their own CSRD Scope 3 Category 1 reporting commitments. Suppliers without primary PCF data are losing preferred supplier status.
Recycled Content Verification
Recycled content claims on packaging must be verified against LCA-based methodologies, not just mass-balance certificates. Brands and regulators are requiring evidence of actual environmental improvement.
The CarbonBright Tools Packaging Teams Depend On
Life Cycle Assessment
An LCA is the foundation of PPWR eco-design compliance and the backbone of every packaging sustainability claim. CarbonBright automates it from BOM import to ISO 14040-compliant report.
