Case Study: Coverguard accelerates PPE carbon management and LCA with Carbonfact

We interviewed Coverguard’s sustainability team on why they chose Carbonfact, practical tips on the selection process, and the onboarding experience with Carbonfact

Coverguard, a company specializing in personal protective equipment (PPE), needed a carbon management solution to meet client and regulatory demands for supply chain transparency and product-level life cycle assessments (LCAs). Their previous method using consultants was costly, time-intensive, and produced static, hard-to-use data. They chose Carbonfact for its apparel-focused platform to measure their carbon footprint and conduct LCAs.

Carbonfact provided an intuitive platform that automated the LCA process for Coverguard’s entire product catalog. The onboarding was swift, with initial results available in just one week. Using Carbonfact’s simulation tools, Coverguard quantified the impact of sustainability initiatives, such as proving that switching to certified recycled materials could reduce a product’s footprint by 3kg CO2e. This enabled them to make proven environmental claims and advance their overall decarbonization strategy.
