BACKGROUND

This leader in dental manufacturing is on a mission to build the UK’s most innovative and technologically advanced dental manufacturing group, positively disrupting the industry and advancing its capability by integrating progressive businesses, advanced technologies, and skilled people.

To support their growth and sustainability commitments, they recognised the need for a robust carbon management strategy integrated with supply chain optimisation.

the challenge

As the company expanded, they faced several key challenges in managing carbon emissions and procurement efficiency:

  • Manage carbon across the group to support expansion
  • Limited visibility into scope 2&3 emissions
  • Inconsistent spend coefficients across the supply chain
  • Lack of standardised supplier metrics
  • Need for improved cost control without compromising sustainability

SOLUTION

To address these challenges, the company engaged Anvil to implement a comprehensive carbon management and supply chain optimisation strategy, this included:
  • Developing a centralised carbon tracking system to bring visibility into Scope 2&3 emissions
  • Enhancing spend coefficients to align with operational context
  • Transitioning to quantity-based coefficients for suppliers and key materials
  • Identifying and engaging key suppliers in the sustainability journey

“Carbon Management has helped us to provide our Scope 1, 2 & 3 carbon and allows us to create an actionable carbon management plan.”
