HOW OUR EMISSIONS CALCULATOR WORKS
Exfreight’s Instant Carbon Calculator allows shippers and partner 3PL’s decision-making insight regarding modes of transport, shipment routing, and overall CO2 emissions. Our calculations utilize measurement standards published by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Center for Corporate Climate Leadership.
The estimated carbon emissions for all shipment modes is providing at the time of rating and during actual transit. This includes first mile trucking, air/ocean transport, and final delivery worldwide. Data is collected and verified with all respective carriers and provided to the shipper.
Customers are also able to override the standard calculations input their own kilogram per short ton mile factors to meet required internal standards of measurement. This can be applied to trucking, air cargo, rail, and ocean transport modes.
Full reporting capability allows the daily, weekly, monthly, and annual measurement of carbon emissions for every step of the supply chain and respective individual shipment. Unlike industry competitors, ExFreight’s Carbon Calculator is directly integrated function within the company’s proprietary operating system. Using global location data and mileage calculations, an element of accuracy is provided previously unavailable within the global transportation industry.
