TCS Envirozone™

End-to-end carbon emission management

As consumers become more conscious of the ethical and environmental impact of goods and services, businesses want to ensure their money is invested in clean organizations that value and prioritize sustainability.

The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have brought a new dimension to companies’ disclosure and story-telling practices, making them re-think their approaches and contributions to sustainability. There is an emerging need for solutions, partnerships, and ideas to address some of these world’s most pressing environmental challenges.

TCS Envirozone helps businesses in end-to-end carbon emission management by helping them adopt low-carbon or carbon-neutral strategies. Integrated with solutions such as O-zone, net zero and sustainable line-haul, iCloseLoop, and 5R sustainable packing framework, the solution consistently mitigates sourcing risks, generates alerts for supplier data and sustainability impact factor errors, and makes product packaging recyclable.
