Carbon challenges in the E-commerce.

Last-mile delivery (Scope 3 cat. 9)

Delivery represents the most visible part of your footprint. Kabaun integrates data from your carriers (Colissimo, DHL, UPS...) and calculates emissions per parcel, per zone and per delivery mode.

Packaging & returns (Scope 3 cat. 12)

Cardboard, plastics, protective films, return management: these items are often underestimated in e-commerce. Kabaun calculates the impact of each packaging reference and helps you prioritise reductions.

Digital infrastructure (Scope 2 & 3)

Hosting, CDN, e-commerce data centres: digital represents a growing share of a pure player's footprint. Kabaun integrates the emission factors of your cloud and hosting providers.

We thought our carbon footprint was limited to packaging. Kabaun revealed that delivery accounted for 55% of our footprint. We were able to build a credible reduction plan for our investors.

Your questions about Kabaun for your sector.

We work with 4 different carriers. Can Kabaun aggregate their data?

Yes. Kabaun integrates delivery data from your carriers via CSV import or API connectors. You get a consolidated view of emissions by carrier, by mode and by geographical zone.

Our return rate is high (25%). How does that integrate into the calculation?

Returns generate reverse transport emissions and reconditioning. Kabaun calculates emissions linked to returns under Scope 3 cat. 12 and lets you measure the real impact of your returns policies.

Our investors are asking for a certifiable carbon report. Can Kabaun provide that?

Kabaun generates a complete carbon report, GHG Protocol compliant, with a full audit trail (sources, emission factors, reference framework versions). This document is exportable as a PDF and can be sent directly to your investors or auditors.
