Methodology description

Shiseido's product and organisational environmental footprint assessments follow its internal Guidance for Product and Organizational Environmental Footprint Assessment (v1.04, April 2021), grounded in ISO 14040/44 and the GHG Protocol Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Standard. Emissions are assessed across the full product lifecycle — raw material procurement, manufacturing, distribution, use and maintenance, and end-of-life — with the functional unit defined per sales unit. Cut-off is permitted only where excluded processes collectively contribute less than 5% of total emissions. Biomass-derived CO₂ is treated as carbon neutral and excluded from GHG totals.

    Cornerstone Sustainability Data Initiative

    Cornerstone is a sustainability data initiative that maintains and publishes key US environmental datasets, including the US Environmentally-Extended Input-Output (USEEIO) family of models, the U.S. EPA's GHG Emission Factors Hub, and eGRID electricity emission factors, originally developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). USEEIO provides open emission factors across more than 400 sectors of the US economy and is widely used for Scope 3 corporate accounting, policy analysis, and academic research. The GHG Emission Factors Hub provides emission factors for a wide range of fuels, transportation modes, refrigerants, waste, and other activities commonly used in greenhouse gas inventories. eGRID provides detailed electricity generation emissions data for estimating the emissions intensity of grid-supplied electricity in the United States.

    EXIOBASE

    EXIOBASE is a global, detailed Multi-Regional Environmentally Extended Supply-Use Table (MR-SUT) and Input-Output Table (MR-IOT). It was developed by harmonising and detailing supply-use tables for a large number of countries, estimating emissions and resource extractions by industry. Subsequently, the country supply-use tables were linked via trade creating an MR-SUT and producing MR-IOTs from this. The MR-IOT can be used for the analysis of the environmental impacts associated with the final consumption of product groups. The EXIOBASE emission factors use basic prices. The basic price represents the initial cost set by a producer for a product or service, without additional fees like taxes or delivery costs (referred to as tax and transport margins). The values in the Climatiq Database might not be exactly the same as the ones you find on the EXIOBASE download page due to the prices used.
