2026 Update of the Carbon Minds Database and Launch of the Data Portal

We are excited to announce the largest update in our history. The 2026 Carbon Minds Database Update is now live, alongside our new self-service platform: the Carbon Minds Data Portal.

The 2026 Update by the Numbers

This update reflects today’s supply chains and production technologies, ensuring your analysis is built on the most current and credible information available:

16,000+ Additional Datasets

Covering the production of 210 new chemicals across 200+ regions.

2024 Reference Year

All 135,000+ datasets have been refreshed to reflect the latest consolidated industry data.

Expanded Certifications

Our methodology is re-certified by TÜV Rheinland (ISO 14040/44/67) and updated to the latest TfS (v3.0) and UEIL/ATIEL (v1.2) standards. We have also added two new certifications: WBCSD and the GHG Protocol Product Standard.

New Access: The Carbon Minds Data Portal

We have moved from manual file delivery to a streamlined self-service system. The Carbon Minds Data Portal allows you to search, compare, and visualize data directly in your browser. Use our new Online Search to explore our coverage and identify the specific production pathways you need for your LCA, PCF, or Scope 3 work.

Watch the On-Demand Webinar

See the new portal in action. Our launch webinar provides a live walkthrough and features an independent perspective from TÜV Rheinland on the methodology and rigor behind the 2026 update.
