Product carbon footprint and factory-data platform for manufacturers

Updated by Onye Dike on October 31st, 2025
Glassdome is a product carbon footprint and factory-data platform for manufacturers in complex supply chains, notably automotive, electronics, and batteries. It prioritizes measured operational data over broad averages, aligning results to recognized standards and enabling secure exchange with customers and regulators. By combining machine-level signals with supplier inputs from lower tiers, Glassdome helps teams quantify per-product emissions with traceability and shareability in mind. The goal is not just compliance but actionable visibility into process hot spots, so engineers and sustainability leads can target reductions while keeping footprints interoperable across ecosystems such as Catena-X and Cofinity-X marketplaces too.

Core Features

Glassdome’s approach centers on real manufacturing signals connected to supplier networks and presented in a standards-aligned workflow. Rather than relying only on top-down models, it collects machine-level data on the shop floor and merges it with multi-tier supplier inputs to produce PCFs that are ready for secure exchange across industry ecosystems. Some of its main features are:

  • Product Carbon Footprint (PCF): Software to calculate product-level emissions for manufacturers, aligned to recognized standards. Glassdome’s PCF tool enables full lifecycle emission quantification.

  • Factory Data Integration: Derives real data from machines and unifies it with Tier-2/3 supplier inputs. The platform connects to MES/ERP systems, gateways and even submeters to capture electricity, flow, production and loss data for deeper granularity.

  • Standards Alignment (ISO 14067 & Ecosystems): Offers compliant PCF workflows prepared for verification, and supports standards and frameworks such as the Catena‑X Association network and other supply-chain data-exchange protocols.

  • Ecosystem Interoperability: Certified to work within open data ecosystems so carbon data can be shared securely across multi-tier suppliers and downstream customers, enabling collaboration without exposing sensitive manufacturing details.

  • Supplier Data Exchange: Facilitates collection and integration of supplier and third-party data, enabling manufacturers to build a complete PCF picture without forcing full data disclosure from every tier; supports secure submission of carbon-only values.

  • Production Monitoring & Operational Insights: Beyond carbon calculations, the platform offers real-time monitoring of production lines, allowing teams to link operational improvement with carbon footprint reduction.

Closing Insights

Glassdome grew out of founder Simon Kim’s years building IoT software and seeing how high-granularity sensor data changes operational decisions. That insight shaped Glassdome’s focus on real manufacturing signals, supplier connectivity, and standards alignment rather than model-only estimates. Its distinguishing factor is the emphasis on collecting machine-level data and merging it with multi-tier supplier inputs to calculate product-level footprints that are shareable across ecosystems.

Notable users and collaborations include LG Electronics’ Vehicle Component Solutions company, which worked with Glassdome on a Product Carbon Footprint calculation and ISO 14067 verification project. Glassdome also partnered with Siemens, combining its PCF workflow with SiGREEN’s data-sharing capabilities. Importantly, Glassdome earned Catena-X certification and Cofinity-X marketplace registration – becoming only the second company worldwide to receive certification under the Catena-X Rulebook.

For potential users, Glassdome may appeal if you need PCF results rooted in operational data and ready for secure exchange. Glassdome additionally provides expert advisory support for data collection, monitoring, and reporting across the manufacturing process. That combination of data fidelity, standards compliance and industry-validated interoperability can help reduce rework and speed readiness for evolving regulations in Europe and other markets.
