Where should we send your blueprint?

The trust is, it’s not a data problem: 
It’s knowing how to use it, align on it,
and stay compliant

Most food teams know emissions matter. The challenge is knowing what to say, how to say it, and how to stay aligned when it counts—during audits, RFPs, or leadership reviews.

That’s when risks appear:
✔ Different teams are tracking different parts of Scope 1, 2, and 3
✔ Some sites have footprinting tools, others are guessing or using outdated data
✔ Commercial teams get asked about emissions in RFPs, but there’s no agreed message
✔ With no clear owner of food-related Scope 3, people stay quiet or get it wrong

Under pressure, teams pause—not from lack of care, but from uncertainty about what’s safe to say or how to move forward. The good news is that even without full Scope 1–3 coverage, teams can take a first step.

Align how you talk about food emissions, reduce risk, and move toward compliance with confidence.

Frequently Asked QUestions

What exactly does Klimato do, and who is it for?

Klimato helps food businesses understand and reduce the climate impact of food. The solution is used by restaurants, caterers, hotels, and food producers that already work with sustainability and need food-specific emissions data they can trust.

In practice, Klimato supports teams that need to move from intention to action. That means turning food data into something that works across menus, procurement, reporting, and communication, without starting from scratch or rebuilding existing workflows.

How does Klimato calculate food-related carbon emissions, and what data is it based on?

Klimato calculates food-related carbon emissions using science-based life cycle assessment (LCA) data. The calculations account for differences between ingredients, sourcing, and production methods, which is where many food businesses struggle to get reliable answers.

How this plays out in practice depends on what food is served, how it is sourced, and how data is used across teams. Klimato is designed to make these differences visible and usable, not just technically correct.

What problems does Klimato help food businesses solve in practice?

Food businesses often face pressure from many directions at once, from internal teams, clients, investors, and regulators. Klimato helps bring clarity where sustainability work is often fragmented.

By standardizing food emissions data and reducing manual reporting, Klimato helps teams align on one shared way of working with food climate impact. This makes it easier to answer questions, spot risks, and focus effort where it actually makes a difference.

What makes Klimato different from other sustainability or carbon tools?

Klimato is built specifically for food. Unlike general carbon accounting tools, Klimato focuses on food-related emissions, which typically make up a large share of climate impact in food businesses.

The solution combines detailed food climate data with practical workflows designed for real-world use. This allows sustainability to stay connected to daily decisions, not locked away in reports or spreadsheets.
