The Challenge

Before working with ClimateCamp, DW Reusables had the very concrete challenge that they never done carbon accounting before and needed help in both creating a solid plan as well as executing it. Despite making sustainable, recyclable plastics, they needed to take concrete steps toward sustainability reporting.

Additionally, they were getting lots of customer requests for sustainability data but didn't have enough information to respond effectively. These challenges made it hard for them to assess their overall sustainability performance and set meaningful goals.

ClimateCamp’s Approach

DW Reusables began collaborating with ClimateCamp on carbon accounting in January 2024, led by their Maintenance & Technical Development Manager.

The collaboration consisted of several steps to ensure DW Reusables reached it’s ambitious sustainability goals:

• ClimateCamp assisted them in calculating their Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, resulting in a clear picture of their carbon footprint.

• The ClimateCamp team provided hands-on assistance, had frequent meetings to collect and precisely organize their data, and collaborated closely with the DW Reusables in order to ensure fast follow-up and immediate value creation.

• DW Reusables regularly receives requests to share their sustainablity data with customers. ClimateCamp takes care of this so DW Reusables needs to spend the least amount of time possible in it.

These approaches enabled DW Reusables to better analyze its environmental impact and respond to consumer inquiries more efficiently.

The Outcome

ClimateCamp helps DW Reusables gather emissions data, including Scope 3 data, to understand their environmental impact. This helped them a lot in reducing their employee workload by automating surveys, data collection, and analysis. It allowed the team to focus on important tasks and meet deadlines effectively.

The collaboration also had a good effect on DW Reusables' suppliers. They said ClimateCamp's technology was fast and efficient, and their customer success team was supportive throughout.  

“ Our collaboration with Climate Camp is incredibly valuable. Their expertise in measuring and analysing carbon emissions, has provided us with critical insights and significantly contributes to the satisfaction of our customers. “  

Tomislav Palajsa, Maintenance and Technical Development Manager stated.
