Our Range Impact Simulator is a unique tool that allows users to measure the cumulative environmental impact of their product ranges. It focuses on three key sustainability metrics: carbon emissions, land use, and water usage. Users can analyze the impact of their products and simulate different product ranges to understand how changes in selection and quantity can affect the overall environmental impact.
How Does it Work?
1. To use the tool, a user first selects a product range of any number of product lines. This could be a brand, category, or supplier.
2. Product quantities (in annual sales or production runs) for that range are entered into the ‘current quantity’ column.
3. The tool then displays the cumulative impact of this range across carbon emissions, water depletion, and land use.
The Range Impact Simulator is versatile, allowing products to be viewed across various categories, brands, suppliers, and vendors. Key features include:
Modelling Changes: Simulate the effects of swapping products or product materials to see how these changes impact metrics.
Impact Assessment in Seconds: Quickly assess the environmental impact of entire product ranges.
Sustainability Metrics: Evaluate product ranges based on cumulative carbon emissions, land use, and water depletion.
Comparative Data: Compare different possible product selections and quantities to see the cumulative impact reduction or increase.
Who’s it for?
The Simulator is designed to help retailers and consumer brands gain insights into the environmental impact of their product ranges. This tool enables a deeper understanding of the environmental effects of products, empowering businesses to make informed decisions that enhance sustainability. We developed it to promote transparency and support impactful choices in product development and purchasing, while also encouraging innovation in creating more sustainable products.
Users can use the Simulator to easily monitor and work toward their sustainability goals, whether it’s reducing carbon footprint, land and water usage, or aligning with global sustainability standards. Access to tools like this, along with our Product Impact Simulator, is crucial for evaluating product range impacts, identifying areas for improvement, and communicating efforts with transparency.
