Why do I need product carbon footprints?

New regulations such as the EU Digital Product Passport mandate that companies provide detailed lifecycle assessments (LCAs) to demonstrate their commitment to reducing carbon footprints and ensuring sustainable sourcing practices.


On top, more and more companies are setting pro-active NetZero goals. Both lead to growing pressures for suppliers to disclose sustainability data across the whole electronics supply chain.


Even if your company isn’t directly affected by new regulations yet, your customers might be and the need for transparent sustainability data might soon be knocking on your door.

What is the benefit of using sustainability data from Luminovo x Sluicebox.ai?

Cost efficiency and speed. Without Luminovo x Sluicebox.ai conducting LCAs traditionally involves external consultants, costing $30k-$100k for a single assembly and taking 6-18 months.


With Luminovo x Sluicebox.ai LCAs are 1/10 the cost of traditional methods and we get you to a verified EPD in no time. Accelerate time-to-market with sustainability data available at the speed of ideas, not months later.


Simplicity through unique data access. Distributors don’t have carbon footprint data. Traditional data providers in the electronics industry don’t have carbon footprint data. Most manufacturers don’t have carbon footprint data. We do. Traditional LCAs thus require coordination with over 148+ stakeholders for a single product. With Luminovo x Sluicebox.ai you can integrate our API and let us worry about the rest.


Actionable insights. By providing quick and reliable estimates of carbon footprints we enable you to identify high-emission areas early on and implement targeted strategies to reduce the carbon footprint of your BOM. Choose between alternates not only based on price and availability, but also based on CO2e.

Where does your data come from and why can I trust it?

Sluicebox’s AI engine is scientifically-vetted against ISO 14040/44 and European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and is in the process of being TÜV certified. It combines datapoints from 40+ trusted sources such as EcoInvent, BEIS and other governmental databases with insights from ~12M scientific papers grounded in material science. Their methods use primary data like country of origin, materials and technology nodes to tailor emissions data to the specific component supply chain, assuring accuracy down to single MPNs.

Sluicebox’s data is 95% accurate when tested against F500 company results.

Ok, but isn’t this whole sustainability thing just hot air?

Putting compliance to new regulations (some of which will only come into effect over the next years) aside, there are two keywords that make the handwavy specific: internal cost of carbon and carbon avoidance credits.

Reduce Internal Cost of Carbon. Already in 2021, nearly half of the world’s largest companies had implemented an internal cost of carbon. This cost is typically tied to the internal abatement cost of reducing one ton of carbon emissions and can range from $20/ton (VW Group, 2023) to $300/ton (Delta Electronics, 2022). By helping stakeholders or customers make informed decisions and lowering their product carbon footprint, you can drive substantial economic value for your products.

Potential to Create Carbon Avoidance Credits. Carbon avoidance credits are issued for actions that prevent or reduce greenhouse gas emissions that would otherwise occur in a business-as-usual scenario.


Through your help, your stakeholders or customers can reduce emissions and create these credits and trade them on carbon trading exchanges or sell directly to companies looking to offset their emissions. The price of one ton of carbon is projected to reach $25-$30 by 2030.
