From June 2022 until the end of this year, Trinseo works with
Atos using this digital solution that calculates product carbon
footprints (PCF) for the chemical industry to gather key insights
for enterprise-wide deployment of the solution in line with its
existing SAP ERP and data landscape. After scaling up the tool
across business units, Trinseo is expected to ultimately achieve
the capability of providing automated PCF information in-house to
its customers for all its products.
The PCF calculation tool (SCOTT) and methodology developed by
BASF is based on Life Cycle Assessment methodology and calculates
cradle-to-gate PCF. Atos was selected as a partner to develop and
distribute a software platform to make this tool and methodology
available to the industry. The methodology is based on
ISO14067:2018 for the carbon footprint of products, which builds on
the principles and requirements of the ISO standards 14040:2006 and
14044:2006.
“While Trinseo has been reporting our corporate carbon footprint
for many years, it is still a manual and extremely labor-intensive
process to do the same on a per-product level,” said Dr. Julien
Renvoise, Trinseo’s Sustainability Business Development Leader.
“Starting with a couple of our flagship products, we will explore
how to automate this with the help of Atos and their PCF
platform.”
“Our assessment has shown that Trinseo is already in a good
position for PCF automation based on their available data and SAP
processes,” said Stefan Unterhuber, Senior Director of Net Zero
Transformation at Atos. “However, it has also shown areas where we
expect gaps and room for improvements. Starting with this pilot
project, our phased approach will allow us to gradually close gaps
in their primary data, improve secondary data quality, and
ultimately provide Trinseo with accurate and transparent PCF data
per individual product that is fully automated.”
Both companies see this project as an important contribution
toward a net-zero economy and an excellent example of how digital
technology can be leveraged to monitor and manage greenhouse gas
emissions.
