Your retailer wants carbon data per product. PPWR is already in force and Green Claims lands in September 2026. Neither waits for CSRD to name you.
Ovens, boilers and refrigerant leakage are Scope 1. Grid electricity for processing lines is Scope 2. Agricultural inputs, packaging materials and cold chain logistics, that's Scope 3, typically 80-90% of a food company's footprint. Dcycle calculates all three per product, per facility, or at group level.
Know the environmental footprint of each product you manufacture. Dcycle performs Life Cycle Assessments aligned with ISO 14040/14044, covering raw materials, processing, packaging, distribution and end-of-life, so you can optimise recipes, compare suppliers and substantiate environmental claims.
Your ingredients come from hundreds of farms and processors. Dcycle's supplier portal collects data from agricultural suppliers using guided templates for different crop and livestock categories. Real-time dashboards show data quality and coverage across your supply chain.
From September 2026, Directive 2024/825 stops you calling a product sustainable, eco or carbon neutral unless you can prove it. Dcycle keeps every figure attached to the invoice, meter reading or supplier record it came from, so a claim on the pack traces back to a source document rather than to a slide.
Water consumption per tonne produced. Food waste percentages. Packaging recycled content and recyclability by format. Dcycle tracks the resource efficiency KPIs that food and beverage operations depend on, per production line, per facility, or across the group, and feeds the same figures into your PPWR declaration.
Major retailers require supplier sustainability data: carbon footprint per product, packaging recyclability, supply chain traceability. Dcycle generates the reports your retail clients need, in the format they expect.

CSRD is the headline everywhere, but after Omnibus it needs more than 1,000 employees and more than €450 million in turnover. These are the requirements that reach a processor, a bottler or a food group regardless of size.
This is the one that lands first, and it has no legal threshold. Your buyer is in scope for their own reporting, your product sits in their Scope 3, so the request comes down the chain. A listing review is not the moment to discover you cannot answer it.
Recycled content, recyclability and extended producer responsibility, per format and per material. The Spanish register holds 52,101 companies, far more than the sector assumed. If you put anything in a box, a tray or a bottle, you are almost certainly one of them.
Generic claims such as sustainable, eco, natural or carbon neutral stop being usable unless you can substantiate them. For food and drink this hits the pack itself, which is where most of the claims are, so the LCA stops being a marketing asset and becomes the evidence file.
Deforestation-free due diligence with geolocation of the plot of origin. Most food companies discover they are in scope through an ingredient they barely think about, palm derivatives in a filling or the cardboard the product ships in.
Obliges you to calculate your carbon footprint and publish a reduction plan. Unlike CSRD it is in force and it is Spanish, so it does not depend on a transposition that is still being debated.
Calculo, Reduzco and Compenso. Voluntary, but it is a public register, so a supermarket buyer or a public tender can look you up before contacting you. Registering the footprint you already calculate costs you one more step.
