CO₂e data for packaging manufacturers
Packaging is not what is left behind.
It protects content, carries information and keeps supply chains moving. Your CO₂e data should be able to show what is in your specific packaging.

Why
Good packaging is only noticed when it is missing.
That is why your product information must not stop at a flat-rate value.
You think about protection, function, processing, run size and transport. In the end, your customers see a product that is supposed to work. CO₂e data makes it clear which decisions go into packaging – and how they differ between formats, materials and variants.
01
What belongs to this specific packaging?
02
Welchen Unterschied machen Material, Auflage oder Veredelung?
03
Wie lassen sich Varianten nachvollziehbar vergleichen?
04
Wie erklären wir die Daten, ohne mehr zu versprechen, als sie aussagen?
How
Packaging is not just a cover. And its CO₂e data is not just an average.
Material, construction, print, finish, print run and delivery route all make a difference. That is why we map the data along the lines of your specific packaging.
01 · Understand
What makes the packaging special
Materials, quantities, printing, processing, production partners, shipping and transport are brought into a suitable perspective.
02 · Structuring
What returns
Recurring materials, processes, and packaging types are structured in such a way that variants remain sustainable.
03 · Explain
What the value means
Product allocation, system boundary, period, methodology, and data basis remain associated with the information.
Your reality
From order to assortment.
Materials and processes recur. Formats change. Print runs vary. A system ensures that a new enquiry does not start from scratch.
Material
Packaging & Quantity
Material type, weight, and product design as a verifiable basis.
Production
Printing & Finishing
Map the processes that shape the respective order.
Supply chain
Partner & Transport
Integrate existing data and make assumptions transparent.
Product
Format & Variant
Assemble concrete product information from building blocks.
So it begins
Not all at once. But properly.
We start with what is relevant to your packaging today – and use that to create a foundation that can grow with further data, orders, and variants.
01
Select a packaging
We start with a specific product, order, or packaging type that answers the relevant questions for you.
02
Define the balance sheet logic
Together, we define product allocation, system boundaries and the data that is already available today.
03
Make data usable
The structure can grow with more specific supplier data, additional orders and variants – instead of being replaced in the next project.
What we offer
One value for the request. One system for your range.
With ecozoom and personal support, we make CO₂e product data usable for quotes, tenders, data sheets, and customer meetings.

01 · Start
Start with a product
To understand a specific packaging, clarify the question and create a resilient basis.
02 · Structure
Continue variants
Design recurring materials, processes, and packaging types in such a way that they remain reusable.
03 · Information
Pass on data in an understandable way
Prepare CO₂e information for your customers and for the appropriate internal discussions.
Communication
Data instead of award.
CO₂e information is not a seal of quality. It shows what was considered – and on what basis a value was created.
The claim
“We don’t turn your CO₂e data into a seal of approval. We show what lies behind it.”
What is included
The basis remains connected with the information.
This includes clear product assignment as well as system boundaries, reference year, methodology and data basis. Voluntary climate protection contributions can be documented separately. They do not change the product carbon footprint of your packaging.
Frequently asked questions
Packaging is rarely just a single variant.
Answers on variants, data sources, and the transparent sharing of product information.
Do we have to recalculate every packaging?
No. If the material, process and product logic are structured sensibly, many variants can be developed further on a common basis.
Do we need data from all partners immediately?
No. We start with the existing data. Assumptions and data sources are made visible and can be supplemented step by step with more specific information.
Can we pass the data on to customers?
Yes. Crucially, it must remain clear what the information refers to and how it was obtained.
What does “CO₂e data available” mean?
It indicates available product information. It is not a sustainability seal, a certificate, or a statement about a climate status.
The next step
Your packaging carries more than just content. Let's show what is behind it.
Let us look together at which product data is available today and how this can be used to create a structure that suits your product range.
