Carbonfact vs EcoReko

Carbonfact is an environmental data platform for apparel and footwear companies, covering carbon accounting, product life-cycle assessments, regulatory reporting, and decarbonization. Its Product LCA offering runs cradle-to-grave assessments across a full catalogue and 16 PEFCR impact indicators. Carbon Accounting provides a GHG Protocol Scope 1, 2, and 3 inventory, including activity-based Scope 3.1. The platform uses more than 150,000 fashion-specific emission factors and fills data gaps with automated heuristics and verified supplier data. Its integrations directory lists more than 58 connections, including Centric, Microsoft Dynamics, SAP, Snowflake, Tableau, and Power BI. Reporting options include Digital Product Passports, CSRD ESRS E1, CDP, Textile Exchange Materials Benchmark, and Better Cotton Initiative reports. A separate decarbonization add-on models product and company-wide reduction scenarios. Carbonfact says its methodology aligns with the GHG Protocol, ISO 14040/14044, and EU PEFCR, with annual peer review by PwC. It lists web and API access. Pricing is on request, while a free supplier plan covers environmental-data exchange and LCA verification. The company says a first audit-ready GHG Protocol report takes six weeks, and a full Product LCA data-granularity implementation takes about four months.

EcoReko is web-based carbon accounting software for SMEs, focused on tracking Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions and managing supplier data. Its inventory covers direct emissions, purchased energy and value chain emissions. The platform says it can produce reports aligned with CSRD, the GHG Protocol, TCFD and CDP from collected data. Users can model changes such as switching to renewable energy, changing suppliers or undertaking efficiency projects, then compare their cost, speed and carbon impact. A free plan includes one user, one site, Scope 1–3 tracking, an emissions factor library and a static dashboard. Standard starts from €4,500/yr and includes a baseline carbon report; Pro starts from €6,500/yr and adds reduction project analysis and an AI assistant. Pro Plus has custom pricing. EcoReko describes its main audience as businesses in Ireland and the United Kingdom. Its supplier portal and CBAM compliance are still in development. The company says raw emissions data remains in its private data layer while blockchain records proofs, timestamps and submission references.
