Case Study: Ocean Bottle improves Scope 3 emissions accuracy with Sweep

How Ocean Bottle increased Scope 3 emissions measurement accuracy across its supply chain with Sweep

Ocean Bottle, a consumer goods company and reusable bottle brand, faced the challenge of accurately measuring its Scope 3 emissions after a period of rapid growth. As the company had no direct control over its supply chain, its previous spend-based measurement methods were insufficient. They needed an activity-based approach to track their complex value chain emissions in order to meet reduction targets. To solve this, they turned to the sustainability data management tool from Sweep.

Using Sweep's platform, Ocean Bottle implemented a clear process for activity-based measurement, which identified shipping and air freight as key emission hotspots. The software enabled them to track 100% of their air freight shipments by weight and route. As a result, Sweep helped Ocean Bottle limit its 2023 air freight emissions to 45,134 kg CO2e, which was 3.6% below its target and accounted for just 5% of its total transportation emissions. This increased accuracy allowed the company to measure 78% of its emissions with activity-based data and log a decrease from the previous year.
