Carbon Footprint for packaging
From 2026, Fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and large companies will require verified carbon footprint data from their packaging suppliers to meet Australia’s mandatory climate reporting (AASB S2).
This shift is more than a compliance exercise, it’s the turning point we need. Brands that can deliver transparent, reliable packaging data will gain trust, stand out in crowded tenders, and demonstrate genuine leadership in a market that is demanding more responsibility from its suppliers.
Our Packaging Carbon Footprint Calculation service equips you with the insights and tools to do exactly that. We translate complex emissions calculations into a clear story you can confidently share with your customers, your investors, and your teams, positioning your business as a trusted, forward-thinking supplier in a competitive market
