# 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.
