Chemical & Plastics: Carbon Minds Database
Get access to the world’s largest environmental life cycle database for chemicals and plastics – now integrated with XYCLE.
Why This Integration Matters
Carbon Minds’ database brings regionalised, supplier-specific LCI data into XYCLE, enabling more precise and impactful Scope 3 assessments. Rather than relying on global averages, this integration allows you to:
-
Explore emissions data based on where and how materials are produced
-
Access impact factors tailored to over 1,500 chemicals and plastics
-
Gain insights from 200+ countries, supporting real-world supply chain modelling
-
Trace upstream impacts with greater confidence
-
Make informed decisions around product design, procurement, and sustainability strategy
Benefits for XYCLE Users
This integration is particularly valuable for LCA practitioners and sustainability teams looking to:
-
Increase the granularity and relevance of their impact assessments
-
Model supplier- or country-specific differences in chemical production
-
Improve the accuracy of results for complex value chains
-
Align with emerging regulations requiring detailed Scope 3 disclosures
Carbon Minds complements Minviro’s in-house battery materials dataset, offering a broader foundation for advanced environmental modelling in XYCLE.
