Features, Data and Standards for successful Carbon Footprinting
Let us provide you with the right footwear for your path to success!
- Quick and easy calculation of product life cycle models
- Product-related CO2 footprints (Product Carbon Footprint) according to PAS 2050, GHG Protocol, and in the future ISO 14067
- CO2 footprints for a location or company (Corporate Carbon Footprint)
Umberto for Carbon Footprint: features overview
Global
- Language: English
- Manual and tutorial in PDF format
- Comprehensive help system for an easy start

- Modeling of multi-product systems and allocation into individual products
- Calculation of total flows, the product-related flows and CO2 fluxes per product
- Process specifications using input and output coefficients
- Process specifications with the help of functions and parameters
- Process specifications using generic materials
Evaluation
- Various options for layout adjustment of life cycle models and Sankey diagrams
- Schedular and graphical presentation of the results of the carbon footprint calculation, individually assigned to groups
- Apportionment of the carbon footprint results according to the phases of the life cycle
- Apportionment of the carbon footprint results for direct emissions, indirect emissions from raw materials or energy (upstream) and indirect emissions from disposal (downstream)
- Evaluation of the underlying flows of energy and materials
- Export to MS Excel
- Print function for all results (tables and graphs)
Visualization
- Sankey diagrams for all material and energy flows, the flows associated with a single product and the calculated CO2-equivalents
- Multi Element Editing
