Build. Share. Reduce your Product Carbon Footprints.

Please contact the Kingfisher PCF Pilot Program Sponsor, Laurence, to let him know you have a PCF to share.

Please note: M2030 will soon have an import PCF/LCA function to enable data sharing.

Kingfisher are requesting PCFs from their suppliers, as PCFs enable businesses to understand hotspots within a product’s life cycle and inform actions to reduce their impact. By collaborating with our suppliers to develop product level carbon information, together we can improve carbon data accuracy.

The deadline is 31^st December, but we encourage you to get started as soon as possible.

Once the PCF is built, and the deadline of 31^st December is reached, the PCFs built with Kingfisher codes in the Product description will be shared with Kingfisher.

A Product Carbon Footprint is a measure of the total greenhouse gas emissions associated with the production of a specific product or service.

It can encompass all stages of a product’s lifecycle, from raw material extraction to manufacturing, distribution, use, and disposal.

At M2030 we help suppliers to build cradle-to-gate PCFs.

Manufacture 2030 provides global brands, corporations and their small and medium-sized suppliers with the data, tools and support they need to be certain they can hit their GHG emissions reduction targets. Its unique AI-powered software platform and support services help measure, manage, and reduce emissions across global supply chains. 

Scope 1: Direct emissions from sources owned or controlled by an organization.

Scope 2: Indirect emissions from the generation of purchased energy, such as electricity, heating, or cooling, that occur offsite but are tied to the organization's operations.

Scope 3: A broader category of indirect emissions across an organization’s value chain, encompassing the entire lifecycle of products and services used or produced, as well as other activities that indirectly affect environmental impact.

The core M2030 solution helps manufacturers to measure, manage, and reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions at the facility level. Building a Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) offers a more in-depth approach to emissions reduction by enabling users to analyze the carbon footprint of their products, with a focus on Scope 3 emissions. This helps organizations identify emissions hotspots and high carbon products and product categories.

The M2030 PCF tool leverages several emission factor databases, including Ecoinvent, GLEC, 2006 IPCC Guidelines, and GWI, among others.

Yes, you can input custom emission factors into the M2030 tool. For example, if you have primary emission factor data from a direct supplier or more accurate secondary data from an external database, you can use these to improve the accuracy of your PCF. Just follow the instructions within the M2030 PCF builder.

Use the latest year for which you have manufactured and sold this product to Kingfisher as the reference period in the PCF Builder in M2030

Yes, you can share your existing PCF with your customer using the "import PCF" feature in the M2030 PCF platform.

The M2030 PCF Builder is designed to generate cradle-to-gate PCFs. This scope assesses the environmental impact of a product, from raw material extraction (‘cradle’) to the point where the product leaves the manufacturing facility (‘gate’) or reaches the retailer ('retail gate'). It includes all processes involved in manufacturing up to this point, such as material extraction, pre-processing, and transportation.

M2030 offers a variety of resources to help you build PCFs, regardless of your experience level:

• The M2030 PCF Academy: A modular learning experience

• Step-by-step guides for the M2030 PCF builder

• Supplier group training demonstrations

• Data collection checklists

• Links to helpful external resources, such as EPA guidance or GLEC guidance for transport emissions accounting.

Manufacture 2030 maintains administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of customer data as required by law. These safeguards include encryption of data in transmission (using SSL or similar technologies). Manufacture 2030 is ISO 27001 certified with an Information Security Management System (ISMS) aligned to ISO 27001 in place and are compliant to General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Manufacture 2030’s commitment to GDPR and CCPA principles are reflected throughout the Privacy Policy.

Commercial data is not shared with any other party, e.g., only suppliers apportioned environmental savings data is shared with its customers. Any financial savings made by implementing efficiency measures are not shared with any organization other than the supplier company itself.
