Sustainability - a success story built on responsibility
With us you reduce risks. Boost your profitability. Reposition yourself in the market with a forward-looking approach.
- The simplest and most practical way to generate sustainability reports and CO₂ and life-cycle assessments.
- Put an end to cloud-based ESG silos!
- Climate3-LCA utilises the existing system logic of your ERP. Your data stays with you.
Sustainable transformation, implemented professionally and simply.
Our experience
You benefit from our 20 years of experience with sustainability within or closely linked to ERP.
GRI, DNK and materiality matrices have been our companions for many years.
We understand the world of industry and know how to integrate sustainability into your organisation.
The world of sustainable transformation becomes straightforward, as thanks to ERP, all your data and processes are already familiar to you.
Only minimal training is required and practically no additional staff are needed.
Your organisation grows in expertise but not in headcount.

Calculations
CCF or PCF are calculated with minimal effort using ERP master data.
A life cycle assessment for a product or the company is generated at the same time.
This means that management decisions can already be made today based on biodiversity and water scarcity.
A PCF also automatically generates EPDs, PEFs and DPPs. In particular, the digital product passport generated directly from ERP data can represent a major step forward for many companies.
Calculations can be carried out as early as the product development stage.
Sustainability Report
Climte3-LCA not only calculates climate data in accordance with the GHG Protocol, but also all numerical data in accordance with CSRD/VSME-C, and outputs this as reportable graphs and tables.
Taking into account the SDGs, stakeholder and double materiality, with automatic IRO and opportunities/risks output, the report texts are drafted with minimal effort using AI support.
Calculations for products or investments are published in a scientific report.
All graphs and tables are ready for reporting.
Is sustainability a cost driver? Not with Climate3-LCA!
With Climate3-LCA, sustainability becomes part of your day-to-day operations – not a cost burden.
Ask us and see for yourself.
Efficient analysis of the current situation
Analysis of the organisation, including role allocation, basic training in sustainability, drafting of all key documents (internal and supplier codes of conduct, complaints procedure, etc.).
Taking a targeted approach to new initiatives based on experience.
The company’s sustainability report
Drawing on experience with GRI and DNK, we carry out stakeholder and materiality analyses, SDG mapping and CCF assessments, including LCA calculations where applicable, along with all the associated work.
The result: the sustainability report.
A few days.
Product analyses
PCF, PEF, DPP
Thanks to the close integration with ERP systems, carbon footprints and life cycle assessments are generated directly from existing company data. Scientifically validated.
Product strategy at the touch of a button.
Many successfully completed projects
Selected examples:
Chespa is a leading and innovative manufacturer of printing inks, printing plates and permanent printing tools.
Climate3-LCA is used at Chespa as an integrated management tool – for CCF, PCFs and LCA.
Product innovation is at the heart of the added value, such as pre-press preparation on the target substrate, resulting in a reduction in CO2e emissions of approximately 40 times. Read more: Link

Wynn Pettfood is a start-up that has developed an innovative concept for ‘wet food you mix yourself’
Climate3 supported the development and demonstrated that, compared to traditional tinned food, over 50% of CO2e emissions are saved from production through to recycling.

Der Hannheinehof has been run organically for generations and produces marketable products from orchard meadows.
Climate3 carried out a life cycle assessment for Hannheinehof comparing their orchard meadow apple spritzer with a conventional product, revealing a CO₂e reduction of more than tenfold and a significant benefit for biodiversity. Read more: Link

Our expertise in sustainability across the entire life cycle
including CSRD / VSME-C
"I am driven by the positive interplay between sustainability and economic efficiency. The key lies in engaging the organisation and utilising ERP structures."
Dipl.-Ing. Urban Buschmann
Urban Buschmann studied food technology in Stuttgart-Hochenheim. He spent the first 19 years of his career working in R&D and process development at Unilever across Europe. Most recently, he spent 22 years working in R&D at FRoSTA AG (innovative processes, packaging development, and establishing sustainability at FRoSTA AG).
2008: Participation in the PCF pilot project in Germany. Our mentors in this project were the WWF, the Öko-Institut and the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK).
* The work of the founder of Climate3, whilst employed by FRoSTA AG, has received numerous awards and has been cited in laudatory speeches in connection with the work of U. Buschmann: the B.A.U.M. Prize 2012, the German Sustainability Award 2012, the German Sustainability Award 2020, and has been widely published.
Compliance is maintained with the standards for PCF 14067, PEF and ISO 14040/44, as well as ISO 14064 and the GHG Protocol Scopes 1, 2 and 3 for CCF. The EU reporting standard CSRD ‘Omnibus’, VSME and VSME-C are also supported.
