Partner Interview
Climatiq, a carbon intelligence platform, collaborates with us to add a new layer of specificity and granularity to its database.
Could you give us a brief introduction to your company?
Climatiq’s carbon intelligence platform delivers scientifically-vetted emission factors and certified calculation tools for sustainability professionals, supporting carbon footprint reporting and climate-aware decision-making.
All data is standardized to enable easy searching, comparison, and use in automated workflows, saving users months of work sourcing and verifying data.
How is your company contributing to the Net Zero transition in the chemical value chain?
Instead of juggling multiple datasets (and the issues of mismatched data and units that come with that), Climatiq enables users to access factors from any provider through a single platform. This makes it easy to browse, select, and calculate with the data, and to use chemical emission factors alongside other factors in product carbon footprinting to support supply chain decarbonization.
We believe that reliable and comprehensive emission factor data is foundational for carbon understanding. This is key to creating transparency in supply chains and supporting companies’ sustainability goals. For those in the carbon-intensive chemical sector, Carbon Minds enhances the Climatiq database with invaluable chemical and plastics data to support product footprinting and hotspot analysis.

What makes your solution unique?
With nearly one million factors covering everything from acrylic to zinc, the Climatiq emission factor database offers the most comprehensive collection of carbon impact data on the market. All data is scientifically validated by our in-house team of climate scientists and normalized into one cohesive schema, ensuring usability and compatibility across all 120+ datasets (and counting) and within any tool.
That means there are no more complex sourcing, licensing, updating, or data compatibility issues for sustainability professionals to deal with. Instead, they have a single source that can handle whatever they need.
What added value does the collaboration with Carbon Minds create for your customers?
The integration of Carbon Minds data into the Climatiq database adds a new layer of specificity and granularity, especially for customers requiring chemical emission factors. This data can be combined with Climatiq’s Autopilot and PCF calculation features for automated factor mapping and comprehensive product carbon footprint estimations. It also brings reliable chemicals data to the many tools our partners build on top of our API.
