(IN BRIEF) Atos Belgium’s Eviden business group has successfully deployed its automated Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) Platform at Venator, a global manufacturer of titanium dioxide pigments and performance additives. Completed between October 2023 and December 2024, the platform integrates seamlessly into Venator’s IT systems via APIs to deliver accurate cradle-to-gate carbon footprint calculations. Leveraging advanced Life Cycle Assessment techniques and established ISO standards, the solution replaces missing emission data and resolves inconsistencies to ensure reliable results. Both Atos and Venator celebrate this digital innovation as a critical step towards greater sustainability, enhanced transparency, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions across the chemical industry.

(PRESS RELEASE) BRUSELLS/ PARIS, 12-Mar-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — Atos Belgium announces that its digital, cloud, big data, and security business group Eviden has successfully implemented its Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) Platform at Venator, a global leader in manufacturing titanium dioxide pigments and performance additives. This project, which commenced in October 2023 and reached completion in December 2024, marks a significant milestone in Venator’s sustainability journey.

The Eviden PCF Platform is an innovative, fully automated solution that calculates the carbon footprint of Venator’s extensive product range from cradle to gate. Seamlessly integrated into Venator’s IT ecosystem via robust APIs, the platform streamlines data collection and analysis while ensuring that any missing primary emission data is effectively replaced through Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) expertise. When results fall outside plausible ranges, the Eviden team promptly investigates and resolves discrepancies, thereby upholding the highest standards of accuracy and reliability.

The partnership between Atos and Venator was characterized by close collaboration and dedicated teamwork, enabling both organizations to navigate the complexities of gathering and processing critical emissions data. “The Eviden PCF Platform enables Venator to deliver superior product data on the carbon footprint of its products to its customers,” stated Punit Sehgal, Head of Atos Group Belux, Netherlands & Nordics. He emphasized that the platform’s automation capabilities not only provide clear, transparent, and comparable carbon footprint data but also offer valuable insights into internal and external supply chain dependencies, empowering Venator to assess and reduce CO₂ emissions across its portfolio.

Built on established LCA methodologies and adhering to ISO14067:2018—along with the principles of ISO 14040:2006 and ISO 14044:2006—the platform also incorporates best practices from the “Together for Sustainability” initiative, widely regarded as a benchmark in the chemical industry. This comprehensive approach enables users to gain a detailed understanding of their products’ carbon footprints and effectively communicate this information to stakeholders, supporting broader ESG objectives.

Rob Portsmouth, Executive Vice President of EHS, Sustainability and HR at Venator, remarked, “The successful implementation of the Eviden PCF Platform is a significant milestone in our sustainability journey. This advanced tool enhances our ability to measure and manage the carbon footprint of our products, supporting our commitment to transparency and continuous improvement. By equipping our customers with detailed carbon data, we empower them to make more informed, sustainable choices.”

Both Atos and Venator regard this digital solution as a pivotal advancement for the chemical industry. By harnessing cutting-edge technology to monitor and manage greenhouse gas emissions across the entire supply chain, the platform sets a new standard in the drive toward net zero emissions.
