Case Study: Steelforce achieves on-time CBAM reporting with CarbonChain

How Steelforce streamlined EU CBAM reporting with CarbonChain

Steelforce, a major international steel trader, needed to quickly adapt to the new EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and submit its first customs-level carbon declarations by the January 31, 2024 deadline. With thousands of tonnes of steel imports, multiple CN codes, and the need to prepare suppliers for future primary emissions data requirements, Steelforce turned to CarbonChain and its CBAM reporting platform to reduce manual workload and avoid compliance risk.

CarbonChain provided tailored CBAM guidance, automated XML reporting, and validation support to help Steelforce complete its first group-wide declarations on time. The solution streamlined data handling, reduced manual input errors, and created a future-ready process for quarterly reporting, with Steelforce noting that CarbonChain helped educate the team, remove manual workload, and prepare for upcoming CBAM reporting periods.
