Valpak's Carbon Guide

Start with strategy

Before calculating a business carbon footprint, it’s important to decide what you actually need to measure and why.

Valpak’s Carbon Guide helps organisations define their carbon priorities and choose the right route. Whether your drivers are compliance, customer expectations, ESG reporting or net zero commitments, this guide provides a clear starting point.

Define priorities

Instead of diving straight into data, it helps you consider:

• What is driving your need to measure carbon?

• Should you focus on products, services or operations?

• Do you need an organisational or product carbon footprint?

• How do Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions apply to your business?

What you'll learn

The guide also includes:

• A comparison chart of carbon solutions

• Key benefits of each approach

• Legislative and reporting drivers

• Clear definitions of technical terms

• An explanation of how emissions are grouped

With increasing carbon reporting requirements and stakeholder scrutiny, choosing the right carbon strategy is critical.
