Scope 3.10 - Emissions generated from the processing, transformation, or further use of products that your company sells to other businesses

Scope 3.10 emissions include the indirect greenhouse gas emissions generated from the processing, transformation, or further use of products that your company sells to other businesses. These products are typically intermediate goods or components that are further processed by your customers to produce final products.

Examples of Scope 3.10 Emissions:

• Emissions from the further processing of steel, plastics, or other materials sold by your company.
• Emissions generated from the use of chemicals or raw materials in industrial processes by your customers.
• Emissions that occur during the manufacturing of final products using components or semi-finished goods provided by your company.

Relevant Activities for Scope 3.10 Emissions:

To identify your company’s Scope 3.10 emissions, you should examine the following activities and areas:

• Sale of intermediate products: The delivery of raw materials, semi-finished goods, or components that are further processed by other companies.
• Chemicals and raw materials: The provision of chemicals, raw materials, or other base materials used in the production processes of your customers.
• Components for final products: The sale of parts or components that are integrated into your customers' final products.
• Customer-specific processing: Considering the emissions generated from your customers' specific processing activities that use your products.

Where Can I Find Data on My Scope 3.10 Emissions?

Collecting Scope 3.10 emissions data can come from various sources:

• Customer information: Data from your customers about the processing activities and energy consumption that occur during the further processing of your products.
• Life Cycle Analysis (LCA): Data from life cycle assessments that help you or your customers understand the environmental impact of the products you supply during their further processing.
• Industry reports: Use of industry-specific reports or databases that provide emissions factors for certain production processes and materials.
• Contractual agreements: Information from contracts or specifications related to the further processing or use of your products by customers can help estimate the associated emissions.
