End-of-Life Method Guidance

Need more guidance in choosing the right Landfill/Incineration method to use for each material, from the long list of options.

Split out transport by each part.

right now we have clustered them by materials.

Compare the emissions of 2 materials in the material search library

Transport Emissions - from factory to final destination

Model your downstream distribution emissions - from when the product leaves the factory to the final destination

expand sustainability metrics beyond carbon footprint

include : eutrophication potential, human toxicity, terrestrial ecotoxicity, abiotic depletion (fossil fuels), ozone layer depletion, and methane

Copy & Paste or bulk edit part materials and manufacture processes

If I’ve got 20 parts all in the same material and manufacture process it’s very laborious to individually select the material and process for each part

Product Details breakdown by component

Ability to view product footprint by compononent as well as lifecycle stage

Drag and drop to reorder transportation stops.

Ctrl-Z to Undo

Undo and Redo keyboard shortcuts would be great!

Compare - include detailed metadata like geo, origin, recycled/virgin status

Copy & Paste or bulk edit transportation between parts

Material search filters are not useful categories

Material search filters aren’t especially useful in finding the right material. I was expecting to see material categories like Metal, Wood, Plastic, etc.

Export PDF/CSV

'Use' lifecycle stage - product uses hot water

allow user to specify if product uses hot water

End of Life and Use - Allow user to specify region and % split

pull regional specific electricity data

Compare - per use

‘per use’ as a functional unit - every time the customer uses the product, this is the emissions - ‘effectiveness of a product’

filter materials by 'material type (wood, glass, metals, ceramics, polymers etc)

Only show manufacturing methods applicable to the material already selected

Allows a significant auto-filter to the list of options made available and also allows the user to see alternative manufacture methods to the one they currently have

Integration with CAD tools - Solidworks and Autocad

BOM upload via spreadsheet template

Speed up modelling when there is an existing Bill of Materials

Recommendation Engine : materials based on properties

In-app Feedback

Feedback Widget within carbonsync app to allow users to provide instant feedback on bugs along with screenshots

Material Filter - include 'compostable' and 'bio-based'

Removal of second Injection Moulding option?

There are two, one says “machine only”, the other says “production site”, but without clarification of what that means. I can’t see a need for a designer to consider a full site.

Double click on part to edit name and quantity

Just a little quicker than right-click and “Edit”
