"Tanso's PPWR tool is excellent for creating compliance declarations and technical documentation efficiently and quickly. It's very intuitive to use and offers the flexibility to either capture data in detail right from the start or focus on the essentials first. Especially useful is the ability to build a packaging portfolio and cluster packaging types sensibly, this saves enormous amounts of time for large portfolios. In addition, synergies with other sustainability modules help avoid double data entry. This way, the Tanso module scales flexibly with customer requirements and PPWR regulations."

"We see Tanso's PPWR module as a practical way to structure ongoing implementation work efficiently. It shows its strength especially in preparing declarations of conformity: data collection through the integrated supplier portal, clearly defined approval processes, and central document storage. The clear structure brings requirements, data, and responsibilities together in one shared workflow, making them usable for day-to-day work across the company for the long term."

"Data and documentation are the success factor for PPWR compliance and the other regulatory requirements coming our way in the next few years. Tanso's PPWR module is an easy-to-implement, AI-supported solution that delivers direct, tangible value quickly and simply, in companies of every size. That fits well with our pragmatic consulting approach and lets us hand our clients a solution, once PPWR implementation is complete, that keeps them moving forward for the long term and positions them for what's next."

"By switching from our previous provider to Tanso, we were able to reduce the time required for preparing the Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF) by around 66%, while simultaneously saving approximately 20% in costs compared to the previous process."

At some point, Excel is no longer sufficient. Companies that manufacture need software that structures and processes data reliably. It’s hard to be more efficient than Tanso’s modular setup.

“With our decentralized structure, carbon accounting would not have been possible with Excel. Tanso has become a key success factor for us in steering, data collection, and reporting. Through close collaboration with the Customer Success team, we were able to define processes more clearly, develop tailored solutions, and see our feedback incorporated directly into the software.”

"Today, I can calculate in five minutes how much CO₂ we would save by electrifying a furnace. This level of flexibility would have been impossible in the past."

"After our experience with another software provider, we have now found not only a powerful solution in Tanso, but also a partner who supports us on our path toward greater sustainability. The platform is intuitive, practical, and enables us to ensure data quality and transparency. We particularly value the personal support and quick assistance, which help us overcome challenges efficiently. From day one, we have experienced professional guidance, allowing the transition to Tanso to be seamless."

“Tanso helped us identify existing data gaps and create full transparency. This allowed us to build a reliable foundation for our sustainability management and derive future actions in a targeted way.”

”By combining CCF and CSRD in a single platform, Tanso creates clarity, leverages data synergies, and brings structure to complex sustainability processes.”

“Together with the executive management, we decided to use a tool for CO₂ balancing in order to map Scope 1 to 3 in a structured and comprehensible way. We chose Tanso - particularly because of its combination of automation, analysis functions, integrated database and high level of user-friendliness.”

“The task management in Tanso is very user-friendly, and features like date control and approval status support us effectively. This allowed us to reduce the time needed for the creation of our first CCF by 30% and for the second CCF by 50%. The AI-powered text generation and the direct linking of ESRS standards are particularly helpful and significantly simplify the process.”

“The seamless integration of PCF and CCF data has significantly accelerated our processes – we’re now much faster and avoid redundant work. What used to take almost a full day is now done within a few hours. In addition, our customers also appreciate the quality and informative value of the PCF reports.”

„Die Wesentlichkeitsanalyse ist ein Prozess – aber einer, der sich mit Tanso strukturiert und prüfungssicher aufsetzen lässt. Durch die einmalige saubere Durchführung wird es in den Folgejahren deutlich einfacher. Auch unser Wirtschaftsprüfer war positiv überrascht von der Tiefe und Präzision der Tanso-Methodik.“

“Our CSRD test report clearly highlighted how challenging it is to efficiently collect and prepare relevant data – a process that not only requires time but also close coordination within the company. One of the biggest challenges was identifying the right contacts worldwide and gathering financial and sustainability data in the required quality and format."

“Tanso provides us with a comprehensive software suite for carbon accounting and CSRD reporting. Thanks to its smart structure, the integration of existing data, and efficient workflow management, our effort has been significantly reduced. The clear interface greatly simplifies monitoring, and data collection, which previously required extensive spreadsheets, can now be completed within just a few hours.”

“As a medium-sized group of companies, Tanso enables Zambelli to set up a management system for non-financial KPIs in parallel with controlling. In addition to sustainability indicators and compliance, we can also record other topics and data points for quality and environmental management in Tanso in a structured way and use this data for our certifications and business decisions.”

"Thanks to the Tanso software, we were able to independently complete the accounting for Scope 1 to 3 in just two months – a 75% time saving compared to the eight months required with external consultants."

“The import assistant in Tanso is the most helpful feature for me. It makes it much easier to process large amounts of data and allows me to save valuable time.”
“Together with Tanso, we want to combine data with machine learning to manage the transition to a low-carbon economy and meet increasing challenges in terms of transparency and verifiability.”

“Since the introduction of Tanso, our time spent calculating Scope 1 and 2 in the first inventory year has been reduced from two working days previously to just a few hours.”

“For us at FEP, it is particularly important to efficiently determine PCF calculations for product groups and product variants. In Tanso, simply duplicating and adapting the PCFs helps me. As a result, I was able to calculate multiple PCFs in a very short time.”
“As a company that requires CSRD reporting, Tanso's software has provided us with tremendous support, especially in the initial reporting phase. The integrated project management and a clear overview of all relevant data points have significantly simplified the process and optimized the quality and traceability of our reporting.”

“The direct integration of our auditors into the Tanso software ensures their active participation in CSRD reporting right from the start. As a result, we were able to enable seamless cooperation and ensure fully compliant reporting — without additional coordination loops.”

“Thanks to Tanso, we can clearly show which emission factors and values come from which databases. This not only helps us communicate with the outside world, but was also rated as positive by the environmental verifier in the sustainability report review. ”

"With Tanso, we have found a clear and user-friendly tool that promotes our collaboration, offers transparency in the emission factors and guarantees audit security."

"I am positively surprised by the comparability of the results between PCF STARTER, developed by Tanso in cooperation with VDMA, and the much more comprehensive life cycle analysis (LCA) that HEIDELBERG uses for products. Thanks to the simplicity of the tool, PCF STARTER is recommended for all manufacturers who want to start with product-specific carbon accounting. The tool is great to identify emission hotspots."

Primary data improve the accuracy of CO₂ accounting, help identify key emission drivers, and enable targeted decarbonization measures and better supplier management.
Without primary data, calculations rely on generic emission factors and estimates (e.g., from Ecoinvent or DEFRA) – less precise, but possible in the short term.
PCFs form the basis for robust Scope 3.1 calculations, as they reflect the actual emissions of purchased products and materials – instead of unspecific average values.
The Omnibus proposal introduces simplifications for CBAM: until the end of 2025, companies may report standard values instead of primary data. This gives importers more time and temporarily reduces the effort required for collecting emissions data in the supply chain.
Climate targets should be science-based (e.g., SBTi-compliant), measurable, time-bound, and realistic – aligned with Scope 1–3 and backed by a clear reduction pathway.
PCFs (Product Carbon Footprints) from the supply chain provide accurate Scope 3.1 data and are essential for reliable CO₂ accounting and CBAM-compliant reporting.
Primary data are company- or supplier-specific data, such as actual emissions values of a product or process – as opposed to generic average values from databases.
