Duni Group has introduced a new Carbon Footprint Calculator to provide data-driven emissions insights for its produced napkins and table covers. The tool allows customers to compare product impact against European industry averages for virgin tissue, supporting more transparent corporate reporting. To ensure accuracy, the calculator's model is independently assured by the Carbon Trust according to ISO 14067:2018 standards. This move aims to improve internal supplier decision-making and help clients meet science-based climate targets through verifiable product data.

Using ISO 14067 for product carbon footprints is a solid move. It moves the conversation from vague sustainability claims to a standardized accounting framework. The real test will be how this data integrates into the broader Scope 3 reporting for their B2B customers.

Standardization is great, but I wonder if this actually changes the procurement behavior. If the price difference between the low-carbon option and the industry average is too wide, the calculator is just a reporting tool, not a decarbonization tool.

Duni is basically giving their customers a way to justify buying their products by providing the CO2 data upfront. It is a practical application of science-based targets, though the actual emission reductions depend on the supplier side of the chain.
