Corporate Carbon Footprint: the CO₂ balance of your company.

From your data, we create a Corporate Carbon Footprint that shows where emissions occur and what may matter later on.

What is a Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF)?

A CCF makes visible what often stays hidden in day-to-day operations.

A CCF makes visible what often stays hidden in day-to-day operations. In the Corporate Carbon Footprint, all CO₂ emissions of your company are brought together – structured, transparent, and without unnecessary complexity.

It shows which parts of your business carry the most weight and where emissions occur that you hardly notice in the daily routine.

The CCF follows recognised standards and results in an overall picture you can genuinely work with – for reporting, customer inquiries or understanding where reduction efforts will make sense later on.

CO₂ balance? Let’s just start.

With our BASIC tool, you get clarity about your emissions – in minutes, not months.

Ideal for service companies with up to 500 employees.

Why a CCF is genuinely helpful:

Many companies need CO₂ figures today because customers ask for them, supply chains require them, or they are mandatory in tenders.

A Corporate Carbon Footprint ensures that you can provide reliable information – both internally and externally.

Banks, partners and public institutions are also increasingly requesting transparent, verifiable data.

With a CCF, all relevant information is clearly available – properly calculated, ready to use and without time-consuming data hunting.

It shows which areas truly matter and where actions will make sense later on. This lets you set priorities without guessing: What pays off? What doesn’t? What can wait? For both small and large companies, a CCF provides a dependable foundation – clear, practical and without unnecessary complexity.

 

 

What we do for your Corporate Carbon Footprint

We show clearly how we work – and how your CCF is created.

1. We gather what defines your company.
Figures on energy use, mobility, buildings, procurement or processes – we start with what is already available and close only the gaps that are truly needed for the CCF.

2. We assign all data to the right areas of your business.
Each value is mapped to the correct scopes and categories so it becomes clear which parts of your operations contribute which share of emissions.

3. We calculate your company’s emissions.
In line with GHG and ISO standards, fully traceable and transparent. Every figure can be checked and shows exactly how your total emissions are composed.

4. We walk you through the results – calmly and clearly.
You receive a company-wide CO₂ footprint you can use right away: for tenders, customer requests, internal discussions or the next steps in reduction.

What you’ll have in the end

You receive a CO₂ balance that clearly shows where emissions occur and how the figures are composed. Easy to understand, well documented and without unnecessary complexity.

  • Clear CO₂ figures for your company

    Your Corporate Carbon Footprint shows, in a transparent way, how much your company emits – broken down by areas, sites and scopes. The result is an overview you can use immediately, without additional preparation.

  • Open and verifiable documentation

    All assumptions, factors and data points are fully documented. This makes your CCF ready for audits, follow-up questions or internal discussions – and you can explain at any time how each value was determined.

  • Directly usable for tenders and requests

    Many companies need CO₂ figures for bids, supply-chain requirements or tenders. With the CCF, these numbers are available in a format you can share right away – clear, consistent and without extra work.

  • A foundation that makes decisions easier

    You clearly see which areas of your company may become important later on – for reduction, procurement or planning. The CCF provides a factual basis on which realistic measures can be assessed and prioritised.

Create CO₂ balances yourself – the software for CCF & PCF

With ecozoom, you capture the CO₂ data of your company and your products yourself.

Simple to use, reliable in its results and practical for everyday work.

Frequently asked questions about the Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF)

Answers to the questions that most often come up when creating a company-wide CO₂ footprint.

  • A CCF is often needed for tenders, customer meetings, supply-chain requirements and internal decision-making.

    Many companies need concrete CO₂ figures to submit offers, attach certificates or meet supplier requirements.
    A CCF ensures that these figures are always available and easy to explain.

  • Yes. The CCF is the appropriate and accepted basis when it comes to a company’s emissions. 

    It meets common requirements from tenders, ESG questionnaires, supply-chain checks or customer requests – provided it is GHG-compliant and transparently documented.

  • No, not all. For many companies, it is enough to include the relevant Scope 3 categories.

    What matters is which areas have a noticeable share of emissions or are expected externally.
    We prioritise together which data is truly necessary.

  • A good CCF is traceable, verifiable and usable.
    It does not only show total emissions, but breaks them down by areas and scopes. A single number without documentation has little value – a structured CCF, however, can be shared, explained and used for decisions.

  • Any company that:

    is part of supply chains,
    submits tenders,
    must provide CO₂ figures to customers,
    or needs a first structured overview to support internal decisions.

    Many SMEs quickly realise how frequently reliable CO₂ figures are requested today.

  • It needs to be detailed enough to be traceable and withstand external requests – but not more complex than necessary. A good CCF captures the relevant emission sources and uses factors that are clearly documented. Overly complex models add no value.

  • That’s normal. Missing values can be supplemented with factors, estimates or averages – always transparently, so it’s clear later how the numbers were derived.
    The goal isn’t perfection – it’s traceability.

  • At least once a year, especially if tenders, customer projects or internal steering rely on it.

    Many companies update their CCF after the financial year or ahead of key reporting deadlines.

  • Yes, if it was created in line with GHG standards and properly documented. Most reporting systems accept a CCF as the basis for Scope 1, Scope 2 and major parts of Scope 3 data.

  • When customers or tenders request product-specific CO₂ figures.

    The CCF answers “How much does the company emit?”.
    The PCF answers “How much does this product emit?”.

    Both complement each other but are used for different purposes.
