FAQs

A robust carbon footprint analysis for businesses requires a detailed dataset covering both direct operations and wider supply chains. This typically includes:

  • Energy and fuel consumption data (electricity, gas, oil, etc.)
  • Transport and logistics information (fleet fuel, business travel, delivery miles)
  • Purchased goods and services (supplier data, materials, packaging, etc.)
  • Waste generated and disposal methods
  • Employee commuting or remote working activity
  • Product life cycle considerations (for product-level footprints)

Valpak’s team specialises in collecting and analysing this data, filling gaps where needed, and ensuring compliance with recognised standards such as ISO 14064 and the GHG Protocol.

Most businesses benefit from completing a business carbon footprint assessment annually. This aligns with corporate reporting cycles and helps track year-on-year progress toward sustainability goals. However, certain industries, such as construction, manufacturing, or product development, may require more frequent assessments to evaluate specific initiatives or supply chain alterations. Valpak works with businesses to set an appropriate reporting frequency, ensuring the results remain accurate, timely, and useful for decision-making.

Valpak stands out in the market for its comprehensive, tailored approach to carbon solutions:

  • End-to-end expertise: From carbon footprint audits and life cycle assessments to net-zero strategies, offsetting, and certification

  • Data-driven insights: Access to one of the UK’s largest sustainability insight platforms, enabling robust supplier engagement and benchmarking
  • Proven credibility: Valpak holds an EcoVadis Platinum rating, placing it among the top 1% of sustainability-rated companies globally

In short, Valpak provides the tools, expertise, and independent credibility businesses need to not just measure, but also meaningfully reduce their carbon footprint.
