KERAMIDA develops GHG emissions inventories that are accurate, defensible, and ready for investor and regulatory scrutiny.
GHG Inventory Development
KERAMIDA offers expert Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventory development services to help organizations quantify and manage their carbon footprint across operations and the value chain. Our inventories are fully aligned with the GHG Protocol, providing a robust foundation for climate strategy, sustainability reporting, and regulatory compliance. KERAMIDA has decades of experience developing emissions inventories for companies across every sector.
Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG Emissions Coverage
We quantify Scope 1 (direct), Scope 2 (purchased energy), and Scope 3 (value chain) emissions using the best available organizational data and acceptable methodologies as defined by the GHG Protocol. Whether you have detailed primary data, utility bills, fuel usage records, procurement spend, or supplier-provided estimates, our team can work with what is available to create a complete and transparent accounting of your emissions inventory.
GHG Protocol-Aligned & Assurance-Ready Reporting
KERAMIDA develops inventories that follow the GHG Protocol and applicable sector-specific guidance. Our outputs are structured for internal use, third-party assurance, and public disclosure, including SBTi and CDP.
California SB 253 Reporting Support
KERAMIDA supports large public and private companies in meeting the requirements of California Senate Bill 253 (SB 253) by developing comprehensive GHG inventories suitable for public disclosure. Our team ensures data quality, documentation, and Scope 3 readiness in alignment with the GHG Protocol and SB 253 guidance.
Data Management & QA/QC Systems
Our team designs efficient data collection processes and applies rigorous QA/QC procedures to ensure accuracy, completeness, and consistency across all emissions sources.
Scenario Analysis & Emissions Forecasting
KERAMIDA supports forward-looking decision-making by offering baseline development, trend analysis, and scenario modeling to inform target setting and decarbonization planning.

Featured GHG Inventory Projects:
KERAMIDA conducted a Scope 1, 2, and 3 gap analysis of BHN’s existing Scope 1, 2, and 3 data, identifying areas of improvement in the GHG accounting principles of relevance, completeness, consistency, transparency, and accuracy, according to the GHG Protocol standards. KERAMIDA developed a GHG inventory improvement plan for BHN to improve data quality in future years and also developed a PowerBi data analytics dashboard for BHN to utilize. The Scope 1, 2, and 3 inventory developed by KERAMIDA then served as the baseline for BHN’s Decarbonization Plan.
KERAMIDA has been supporting Masonite, one of the leading U.S. manufacturers of interior and exterior doors for residential and architectural use, in the Company’s sustainability journey since 2021. Our tasks have included conducting a Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions inventory, providing GHG reduction strategies, performing climate risks assessments, and assisting in corporate sustainability reporting and CDP disclosure support.
KERAMIDA conducted a Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions inventory for a company that designs and builds stainless steel propellers for distribution around the globe for a growing marine market. We evaluated the operations at two of the Client’s sites to develop a list of emissions mitigation strategies based on the Client’s strategic vision and priorities.
Milo’s Tea Company is a Platinum-Certified Zero Waste Manufacturer devoted to sustainable practices and the stewardship of local communities and the environment. KERAMIDA conducted a Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions inventory for Milo’s and is currently developing a GHG reduction plan for the company.
