Supplier Emissions Data Requests
Structuring effective requests to obtain emissions data from your suppliers.
Supplier Emissions Data Requests
CBAM declarants need embedded-emissions data that only upstream producers hold. Getting usable responses requires clear, structured requests tied to CN codes and the required data points. Social Lab builds request templates and processes that improve supplier response quality.
Your end-to-end CBAM compliance partner
Collection and calculation of CBAM emissions data, and preparation of quarterly and annual CBAM reports in line with EU requirements.
Assessment of CBAM costs based on embedded emissions and EU carbon prices, and identification of emission reduction opportunities to minimize future carbon costs.
Preparation of documentation required for CBAM verification, and coordination and support during third-party verification and annual compliance.

Supplier Emissions Data Requests — questions we get
Why do my requests get poor responses?
Suppliers often need precise, structured asks tied to CN codes and specific data points to respond usefully.
What should a request contain?
The product and CN code, the data fields required and the format and timing expected.
What if a supplier cannot provide data?
Default values may be used where actual data is unavailable, per the Implementing Regulation.
