Case Study: Carrier achieves ESG carbon reduction goals with aPriori

Carrier streamlines EPD creation in under 12 months with aPriori

Carrier, a global manufacturer of HVAC, refrigeration, and fire and security systems, faced the challenge of obtaining precise data on operational and embodied carbon emissions across its complex global supply chain. This lack of granular CO2e data hindered its ability to meet Environmental Product Declaration requirements, support customer LEED certifications, and achieve its ambitious 2030 ESG goals, including a one gigaton carbon footprint reduction. To address this, Carrier turned to vendor aPriori and its Sustainability Insights solution.

Using aPriori's simulation-driven sustainability module, Carrier gained the ability to analyze and reduce embedded carbon early in the product design phase. The solution enabled detailed life cycle assessment, streamlined EPD creation within 12 months, and informed material choices, such as identifying metals with recycled content as more sustainable than plastics for certain components. aPriori empowered Carrier to make data-driven decisions that support its gigaton goal, realize cost savings, improve regulatory compliance, and increase investor confidence.
