Add data

Pawston Cat Foods Ltd · 2024-04-01 → 2025-03-31

These are the sources we'd expect for Manufacture of food products. Work down the list — for each one, add what you have, ask whoever holds it, or tell us you don't have it. Ticking everything here doesn't prove your inventory is complete, but it's the fastest way to make sure nothing obvious is missed.

Before you start

Export your spend. Pull a spend export, your purchase ledger, covering your whole reporting year as a CSV or Excel file, then drop it in below.
Get a first number. We classify lines into scopes and categories where we are confident, and flag ambiguous ones for review rather than guessing. On self-serve workspaces an admin's upload calculates a first footprint straight away; otherwise your analyst processes it.
Upgrade what matters. Spend gives broad coverage fast. Work down the checklist and replace the material lines with activity data (kWh, litres, km) when you have it, to tighten the number.

This is a sample workspace. Row actions below are shown for illustration; they do not add or change data here.

Scope 1 — direct

3/4

Natural gas
Gas burned on-site for heating, hot water or processes.
Common wherever premises are heated by a gas boiler.
Have it
Owned/leased vehicle fuel
Diesel or petrol for vans, cars or plant you operate.
Direct combustion in any vehicle the organisation controls.
Already counted from your spend
Refrigerant leakage
Top-ups to chillers, cold stores and refrigerated transport.
High-GWP refrigerants make leaks disproportionately material.
Not applicable
Reason: We make shelf-stable canned and dry food. Refrigerant servicing on the few chilled-ingredient stores is handled under the maintenance contractor's F-gas scheme, with no top-ups on our own equipment this year.
Process heat (ovens, boilers)
Fuels for cooking, pasteurising, brewing or drying.
Thermal processing is a primary Scope 1 source in F&B.
To do

Scope 2 — purchased energy

1/1

Purchased electricity
Grid electricity for your premises (location- or market-based).
Almost every organisation has a metered electricity supply.
Have it

Scope 3 — value chainthe categories that usually need a judgement call

6/7

Cat 1 · Purchased goods & servicesAgricultural ingredients
Crops, dairy, meat and other raw food inputs.
Farm-stage emissions of ingredients are by far the largest F&B line.
Already counted from your spend
Cat 4 · Upstream transportation & distributionInbound (incl. refrigerated) freight
Chilled and ambient transport of ingredients to you.
Cold-chain logistics add a notable upstream burden.
Already counted from your spend
Cat 12 · End-of-life treatment of sold productsPackaging end-of-life
Disposal of the packaging your products are sold in.
Single-use food packaging carries a real disposal footprint.
opened
Cat 3 · Fuel- & energy-related activitiesFuel & energy upstream (WTT + T&D)
Well-to-tank emissions of your fuel and grid transmission & distribution losses.
An automatic add-on to any energy you report; usually estimated from the same meters.
To do
Cat 5 · Waste generated in operationsFood & operational waste
Food waste, packaging and general waste sent for treatment.
Food waste to landfill emits methane; segregation changes the factor.
requested

Flights, rail, hotels and grey-fleet mileage for work trips.
Material wherever staff travel to clients, sites or events.
Have it
Cat 7 · Employee commutingEmployee commuting
How staff travel to and from work (and home-working energy).
Scales with headcount; a commute survey is the usual route.

Note: Commute survey drafted but not yet sent to staff.
