Case Study: e.l.f. Beauty turns its carbon footprint into action with Watershed

e.l.f. Beauty boosts footprint completeness to 95%+ with Watershed

e.l.f. Beauty, a consumer goods company, faced a challenge with its manual, consultant-led process for calculating its carbon footprint. This process was opaque and time-consuming, offering limited visibility into emissions data and preventing the team from effectively using it for strategic decision-making. To gain broader visibility and deeper insights, e.l.f. Beauty turned to the Watershed Platform.

Watershed provided a solution by automating data mapping and delivering a complete, activity-based footprint with full transparency into every calculation. This implementation resulted in a drastically reduced data mapping time, from days to minutes, and increased the footprint's completeness to over 95%. With Watershed, the e.l.f. Beauty team saved significant time, gained high confidence in their audit-ready data, and was empowered to make more informed strategic decisions to reduce their emissions.
