Application examples

With Substain, you can create a detailed carbon footprint of your company according to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol in no time at all. Map your entire value chain (Scope 1-3), including upstream and downstream processes. Evaluate the results by any category - e.g. country, location, region or subsidiary - and display the results in a detailed report. Corporate Carbon Footprint: Whether for individual products or your entire product range: Substain allows you to calculate, analyze and evaluate the CO₂ emissions of your products. Once implemented, you can immediately provide your customers with information about the CO₂ emissions of your products - even as a customer-specific PDF for individual orders. Product Carbon Footprint: Substain provides you with targeted support for your CO₂ reduction strategy, e.g. according to the Net-Zero standard. Document reduction measures for each of your locations, simulate the respective reduction potential and compare this with your specified reduction path. Climate protection measures: Certifications such as ISO 14001 or ISO 50001 require large amounts of site-specific data. With Substain, you can collect this data decentrally, enrich it with additional information (e.g. file attachments), store it in a revision-proof manner and evaluate it automatically for many common certifications. Data that you have already collected for other areas (e.g. energy data for the corporate carbon footprint) does not have to be recorded twice. EHS reporting and audit management: All KPIs for complex reporting standards such as GRI, DNK or the new European ESRS standard can be generated with Substain according to the single-source-of-truth principle. All conversions into the required target units are carried out automatically in the background. GRI / ESRS Reports: GRI / ESRS Reports Corporate

Testimonials from Our Customers

With Substain and consulting from ConClimate, we have created a sustainable infrastructure for our sustainability management.
