Fernway

The problem

Big buyers now demand carbon figures from every supplier, and a small manufacturer has no staff or budget for a consultant to work them out.

The solution

Fernway calculates a company's emissions from its energy bills and purchase invoices and produces the report its customers ask for.

Who it's for

Manufacturers with 20–500 staff who supply large corporations.
