The industry in 2026

Consumer product footprints are won in the supply chain

For an FMCG brand, the largest carbon decisions often sit in ingredients, packaging, manufacturing and distribution rather than in the final product itself. A portfolio average cannot show which supplier, recipe or pack format should change first. Minviro models the product and supply chain detail behind your range, so teams can reduce emissions while protecting cost, quality and retailer requirements.

Product footprints built from ingredients and packaging

We connect ingredient, material, manufacturing, logistics and end-of-life data into a product-level model. That lets you see the impact of a formulation, pack format or supplier change before it reaches the shelf.

Scenario modelling for the decisions on your roadmap

Recycled content, lightweighting, local sourcing and lower-carbon ingredients can all look attractive in isolation. We quantify the full trade-off, so your teams can prioritise the changes that deliver a measurable reduction across the product system.

Retailer and customer disclosure without the spreadsheet chase

Retailers increasingly ask brands for consistent product carbon data across a range. We produce documented outputs that can be reused across customer requests, voluntary sustainability reporting and internal portfolio reviews instead of rebuilt from scratch each time.

Ingredients, packaging, manufacturing and distribution can each dominate a product footprint depending on the category. We show which choices move the result, so teams can focus on changes that are material rather than merely visible.

Turn supplier data into a portfolio view

A retailer request rarely stops at one product. We help structure ingredient, material and supplier data so the same approach can be applied across a range without losing the detail behind each result.

Support retailer conversations with evidence

Support retailer conversations with evidence

Retailers want product carbon numbers they can compare and explain. We document the boundary, sources and assumptions so your commercial team can answer the next question without restarting the analysis.

LET'S WORK TOGETHER

Ready to build product footprints your customers can use?

Whether you are responding to a retailer, comparing packaging options or building a portfolio roadmap, the right starting point depends on the product range and data you already have. A 20-minute call will show us both.
