Assumptions and defaults15 entries, 3 warnings
Warnings · 3
- m1: Reused fabric (upcycled sari, scraps, deadstock) has no verified carbon content, so its biogenic carbon is missing from the biogenic balance.
- Grid electricity uses location-based national or regional averages. PACT v3 and Catena-X require the market-based residual mix where contractual instruments exist; supply electricity_factor for contracted or residual-mix power.
- Excluded processes = 7.15% of cradle-to-gate emissions, at or above PACT v3's 3 % cap. The PCF is NOT PACT-conformant until these are modelled.
Assumptions register · 15 entries
- Screening mode: this listing gives no primary data, so every input below that is not a stated material or weight is a named screening default. The result is not PACT-conformant (primary data share 0 %).
- The listing states no weight and no typical weight is on file for "table runner", so the footprint is given per kilogram of product (ISO 14067 declared unit). Enter the product's weight for a per-item figure.
- Country of manufacture not stated in the listing; India assumed.
- m1: Reused fabric (upcycled sari, scraps, deadstock) is not in the published factor library; screening proxy proxy_reused_textile (CONTESTED, technological score 4) used.
- m1: material matched from "upcycled fabrics" (specific, HIGH confidence): reused fabric enters without its first-life burden (cut-off); collection and sorting are not included, so the result is a lower bound.
- m1: material share 100 % is estimated from the listing text.
- Packaging is not stated and no verified default exists for table runner, so it is excluded.
- Cutting and sewing: 1 kg × Cut-make-trim (garment assembly): 1 kWh per kg garment (Quantis, Measuring Fashion, 2018 (assembly ~7% of apparel GHG)); the garment cut-make-trim intensity is used for made-up home textiles.
- Process energy is unmetered screening data (activity uncertainty GSD 1.5–2.0), on the IN grid.
- Inbound transport of materials to the factory is left out of the total, because supplier locations are unknown; its likely size is estimated and reported under the cut-off rule below.
- Distribution route is a screening default (1,000 km road), carrying product plus packaging.
- Cut-off rule: processes are excluded only where no verified data exists, and each exclusion is estimated where possible and reported (ISO 14044 §4.2.3.3.3). Inbound transport is estimated at 0.0626 kg CO₂e.
- Secondary (library) factors are scored at least 3 on technology: PACT v3 Table 12 reserves scores 1-2 for primary data.
- Aggregated secondary factors are used as published in their own GWP basis (AR5); only gas-split fuel factors and direct gas emissions are characterised with AR6. Residual inconsistency is typically a few percent for CO2-dominated factors.
- Sources quoted as published figures (not open-licensed datasets): screening_proxy. Replace with licensed or supplier data before external or comparative claims.
SensitivityThe figure with other published choices
Sensitivity analysis (ISO 14067 §6.4.5, §6.6)
The footprint recalculated with each alternative choice: other published factors, the other allocation method, the grid mix instead of a green-power contract, and the use profile at its uncertainty bounds. A large change shows where better data pays off first.

| Goal: application, reasons, audience, comparative assertion §6.3.1 / 14044 4.2.2 | Screening carbon footprint shown on the Made for Planet catalogue so brands and buyers can see where a product's emissions come from. Reasons: No company data is available for this listing; a transparent estimate from the listing and published factors shows the likely size and the main stages. Audience: Brands and buyers (business-to-business). The estimate is also displayed on madeforplanet.com, labelled as a screening estimate; it is not an environmental claim the brand may use in marketing. Public comparative assertion: no. |
| Functional or declared unit and reference flow §7.3 a | Declared unit: 1 kg (partial carbon footprint); reference flow 1 kg of product. |
| System boundary §7.3 b | cradle to gate. Screening partial carbon footprint, cradle to gate, per kg: materials, fibre processing and making and packaging where known. Distribution, use and end of life are outside the boundary. Capital goods are excluded, as is usual for attributional product footprints. Stages modelled: raw_materials, production. |

| Greenhouse gases considered §7.3 e | CO₂, CH₄ (fossil and biogenic), N₂O and refrigerant gases (HFCs, SF₆, NF₃) where present; secondary factors cover the gases their publishers include. |
| Characterisation factors §7.3 f | IPCC AR6 GWP100 with climate-carbon feedbacks; secondary factors in their published basis where no AR6 version exists (see gwp check). |
| Cut-off criteria and exclusions §7.3 g, o | Inbound transport of materials to the factory: 0.06261 kg CO₂e (screening estimate: 1.000 kg of materials × 500 km by average lorry (UK DESNZ GHG conversion factors 2025, Freighting goods + WTT delivery vehicles); supplier locations are not known) |

| Electricity treatment §7.3 l | IN: grid location (India electricity, life-cycle intensity 2025) |
| Interpretation, limitations §7.3 m, Annex A | Climate change only: other impacts (water, land, toxicity, biodiversity) are not assessed, so a lower footprint does not mean a lower environmental impact overall. Secondary factors limit accuracy as shown by the data-quality scores. |
| Value choices §7.3 n | Cut-off for recycling (PACT); economic allocation only above a 5× value ratio; conservative factor where published values disagree (see sensitivity). |
| Scope changes and exclusions §7.3 o | No product weight is stated, so the study is a partial carbon footprint per kg of product (cradle to gate): distribution, use and end of life are not quantified (ISO 14067 §6.3.3). Packaging is not stated and no verified default exists for this kind of product, so it is excluded without an estimate. |
| Life-cycle stages, use and end-of-life scenarios §7.3 p, 6.3.7, 6.3.8 | Not in scope (partial carbon footprint, cradle-to-gate). |

| Period the footprint represents §7.3 r, 6.3.6 | 2026-01-01 to 2026-12-31: current production as represented by the factor library (each factor's own data year is scored in the temporal data quality) |
| Product category rules §7.3 s, 6.2 | No product category rules conforming to ISO/TS 14027 are known for this product category; MFP screening rules are applied and disclosed. |
| Performance tracking §7.3 t, 6.4.7 | Not a performance-tracking study. |
ISO 14067 counts biogenic removals (−1) and emissions (+1) in the carbon footprint; the PACT headline excludes biogenic uptake. Both are shown.
