Sustainability platform delivers carbon transparency
Capgemini partnered with Henkel Adhesive Technologies to launch the Henkel Environmental Assessment Reporting Tool (HEART), a digital solution designed to measure the carbon footprint of Henkel’s products. This innovative platform provides Henkel’s 100,000+ customers with comprehensive sustainability profiles of approximately 70,000 Henkel products. The HEART tool supports Henkel’s goal of achieving 100% end-to-end transparency on the sustainability of its products by 2030. HEART calculates cradle-to-gate emissions, including raw materials, production, packaging, and logistics. By automating data collection, the tool replaces time-consuming manual processes, enabling customers to make informed decisions and reduce emissions while allowing Henkel to further expand its low-emission product portfolio.
Driving down data-center emissions
Committed to achieving a net-zero carbon footprint by 2030, Siemens Corporate IT has partnered with Capgemini to develop a streamlined CO2 data collection and analysis framework for its in-house data centers, hyperscalers, and third-party providers. Siemens aimed to gain transparency and reduce CO2 emissions in its in-house data centers while maximizing efficiency and ensuring regulatory compliance. The firm also wanted to automate sustainability data management to reduce manual workload. Siemens Corporate IT and Capgemini’s detailed, scalable data collection framework gathered CO2 emissions and energy efficiency insights, enabling decision-making for optimized operations and ensuring regulatory compliance. It included a methodology for standardizing energy and CO2 data, and support for a balanced IT hardware procurement process. The collaboration between Siemens and Capgemini serves as an innovation hub, promoting best practices and continuous improvement.
