CO2 emissions calculation for shippers

The CSRD requires shippers to provide a carbon reduction plan. Shippers therefore need CO2 emission insights into their entire supply chain, from the moment raw materials or new stock is arriving at the factories and warehouses (inbound stream), to the moment freight leaves the shipper up until it reaches the final destination (outbound stream). BigMile allows them to calculate end-to-end CO2 emissions throughout the entire supply chain.

Use cases

Why shippers use BigMile to calculate their emissions

BigMile offers Shippers the right tools to be able to calculate CO2 emission in a complex supply chain, consisting of many parties and sub contractors.

End-to-end transport-chain emission measurement

Verified calculation method for all modalities and logistics sites, globally. Includes all transport-chain elements, from factory to recipient, including warehouses, distribution centres, point of sale and others.

Data consolidation from different sources

Collect CO2 emissions data from subcontractors and consolidate all emissions in one platform. Centralized data allows for aggregate reporting across the entire logistic operation.

Opportunities to reduce carbon emissions

Showcase CSRD compliance to governmental authorities or benchmark and improve carbon reduction efforts. Generate aggregate emission measurements, find carbon emission hotspots and take action.

These shippers use BigMile to track their emissions

Shippers like Ahold Delhaize, Bosch, Siemens, FrieslandCampina, RICOH and Zeeman already rely on BigMile to calculate & report on CO2 emissions.

Why shippers love working with us

Don’t just take our word for it. Here is what shippers are saying about BigMile.

“Using BigMile Carbon Analytics, we can calculate the CO2 emissions of our supply chain partners’ intermodal transport movements. Higher reliability of our measurements will help us decide how best to reduce and offset our emissions. We actively share the information with our supply chain partners and engage with them on how we can work together to achieve lower emissions. We strongly believe it is more effective to set up projects to address carbon emissions within our supply chain together with our partners.”

“In our own portal we can look at all the carriers and gain insights into our total transport carbon footprint. For example, we can see whether it is more economical to bundle a shipment and/or to move it to a specific day. Our salespeople then use this information to continuously encourage our customers to place their orders more consciously.”

Roland van Bussel

Operations Director, Moonen Packaging

“BigMile’s graphical user interface with interactive analysis gives us insights into which steps we can take to save CO2. For example, it became clear to us that we were causing a lot of CO2 emissions for some customers by sending them a large number of small shipments, resulting in high CO2 emissions per kilo or per shipment. This was not always necessary, so we’ve started a dialogue with some of those customers to reduce the shipment frequency.”
