Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ About Scope 3 Reporting

What does CSRD mean for food businesses, and how does Klimato help?

CSRD is the EU’s new sustainability reporting framework that requires companies to disclose verified Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions in line with the ESRS. For food businesses, that means tracking value-chain emissions with the same rigor as financial data—especially Scope 3, which can account for up to 95% of total impact.

What are Scope 3 emissions, and why do they matter for food businesses?

Scope 3 emissions cover all indirect emissions across your value chain—from farming and land use to packaging, logistics, and end-of-life waste. In the food industry, they’re typically the largest source of impact, often representing up to 95% of total emissions.


Klimato helps you get visibility into these hard-to-measure areas by combining procurement data, supplier insights, and a food-specific emissions database. The result: accurate, repeatable Scope 3 calculations that support CSRD compliance, SBTi alignment, and meaningful reduction strategies.

How does Klimato connect to my existing systems?

Klimato integrates with leading procurement platforms, POS systems, and ERP tools used in foodservice and hospitality. Once connected, emissions mapping runs automatically against Klimato's food-specific emission factor database—validated by IVL and WRI—so your Scope 3 data stays current without manual updates. Setup is guided by Klimato's onboarding team and typically takes a few weeks depending on your data setup.
