Our mission

Kapstan assisted the company in conducting its first carbon assessment. Structured around several sectors – from distribution to industrial subcontracting – this assessment required the collection of a large volume of data. The challenge was to establish as reliable a result as possible based on the available information. With metals representing the largest source of emissions, Kapstan drew on its expertise in life cycle analysis and specific LCA databases to refine the results.
