The EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism entered its definitive regime in 2026. For exporters and suppliers, the real challenge is not simply calculating one emissions figure. It is building a repeatable process for collecting product and production data, translating it into the required structure, maintaining supporting evidence, and responding quickly when an EU customer requests updated information.
Package 02 | CBAM Compliance Suite is Ecovane's annual service package for this continuing workload. It brings together the platform, methodology specialists, process-data guidance and reporting support in one delivery path, enabling companies to establish a predictable compliance rhythm without assembling a temporary in-house team for every request.
“EU Registry-ready data and year-round CBAM support, delivered through an annual package ranging from USD 8,800 to USD 26,000.”
The service is designed for exporters of iron and steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, hydrogen and electricity to the EU. It is also relevant to upstream and second-tier suppliers serving EU buyers, as well as companies preparing for possible future expansion of CBAM product coverage.
A NECESSARY DISTINCTION: ANNUAL LEGAL DECLARATION, QUARTERLY MANAGEMENT RHYTHM
Under the definitive CBAM regime, the authorised CBAM declarant in the EU submits an annual CBAM declaration through the CBAM Registry. Package 02's quarterly service rhythm refers to recurring data consolidation, internal review, customer-response preparation and filing support throughout the year—not a claim that the definitive regime consists only of four statutory declarations.
This distinction matters because exporters still need to maintain current production and emissions information across the year. Waiting until the annual deadline to reconstruct product routes, precursor data and supporting records creates unnecessary cost and risk.
ECOVANE'S DELIVERY CAPACITY
Package 02 is not a stand-alone form-filling tool. It is supported by Ecovane's platform-plus-consulting delivery system. According to the solution package materials, the broader capability includes:
• 200+ experienced full-time consultants across LCA, CBAM, SBTi, digitalisation and international compliance;
• 2,000+ corporate clients served;
• 15+ years of professional experience;
• a stated 100% EPD delivery record;
• access to six international and regional databases: ecoinvent 3.10, EF 3.1, EcoVane, Tiangong, BAFU and CPCD.
The objective is not to leave the company with software alone. Consultants support data preparation, methodology application, reporting and follow-up communication under a defined annual service structure.
WHY COMPANIES NEED A YEAR-ROUND CBAM PACKAGE
For many exporters, the practical reality is simple:
“CBAM data work can consume the compliance team's available time.”
Package 02 creates a recurring workflow for process-level data collection, EU Registry-ready structuring, periodic review and response support. A company does not need to brief a new consultant every quarter, rebuild its product model for every buyer request, or treat each data query as a separate emergency project.
FOUR COMMON PAIN POINTS—AND THE CORRESPONDING SOLUTIONS
▸ Pain Point 01 | Complex EU Registry Data Structures
Even when production data is available, companies may struggle to translate it into the structure expected by EU customers and the CBAM Registry. Formatting gaps can lead to rework and delays.
Ecovane solution: provide templates aligned with CBAM Registry requirements and assist in converting company data into submission-ready outputs.
▸ Pain Point 02 | Product Emissions Must Be Traced to the Production-Process Level
CBAM information cannot be built from a single annual utility bill. Products, input materials, production routes, precursor information and process data must be identified and mapped consistently.
Ecovane solution: process engineers provide on-site or remote data-collection guidance, helping the company establish a data foundation that can be maintained and reused.
▸ Pain Point 03 | Internal Teams Do Not Have Time to Build Everything from Scratch
When companies rely entirely on internal trial and error, significant time is consumed by rule interpretation, supplier follow-up, data conversion and repeated corrections.
Ecovane solution: provide a quarterly management cadence and continuing consultant support, reducing duplicated learning and rebuilding costs.
▸ Pain Point 04 | EU Customers Request CBAM Information at Short Notice
Buyer timelines are often faster than internal preparation. Without an established workflow, every request becomes a new project.
Ecovane solution: provide year-round managed support and assistance in responding to EU customers, allowing the company to focus on production, exports and commercial relationships.

WHY ECOVANE / NANOZEO?
▸ 1. Methodology-Level Capability
Ecovane has more than 200 full-time consultants. Its team includes professionals with experience related to EU PEF category rules, ISO 14067, the GHG Protocol and EN 15804, and has accumulated product carbon footprint, EPD and international compliance experience since 2008.
Nanozeo contributes practical supply-chain experience from LCA, product carbon footprint, CDP, SBTi and Scope 3 programmes involving international retailers such as Walmart and Target. Since 2008, Nanozeo has developed emissions-reduction solutions and supply-chain data workflows around ZeoTags, ZeoPDQ and ZeoGreens, while supporting supplier engagement and data confirmation across operating supply chains.
▸ 2. Delivery at Scale
The solution materials describe a project in which the team supported an Asian metropolitan carbon-management platform in completing more than 200 product carbon footprints within two months—approximately ten products per day—using a consultant-led digital workflow to improve processing efficiency.
▸ 3. Defined Service Commitments
Package 02 provides continuing CBAM support and includes assistance with resubmission where required. Ecovane also maintains working relationships with organisations including Bureau Veritas, TÜV, SGS, DEKRA and ITS, supporting coordination with appropriate professional and third-party services.
THREE DISTINCT LAYERS OF RESPONSIBILITY
CBAM should not be presented as a single report delivered by one party. A reliable pathway normally separates three functions:
1. Data and knowledge preparation — identifying products, production routes, primary and secondary data, suppliers and supporting records;
2. Methodology application — mapping data to the applicable CBAM rules, calculation methods and Registry-ready structures;
3. Independent verification or authorised declaration where required — performed by the appropriately accredited, authorised or appointed party.
Nanozeo, SSBTi and Ecovane support the first two layers and coordinate with a selected verification, assurance or filing organisation for the third layer when required. The appropriate organisation depends on the product code, industry, country of production, country of import and the specific reporting requirement.
This separation helps companies avoid unnecessary legal misunderstandings, duplicated work and last-minute conflicts. It also gives clients access to comparison and matching options rather than being tied to a single verifier or consultant.

NEXT STEP: CONFIRM THE REPORTING SCOPE AND EMISSIONS HOTSPOTS
Companies can begin with two basic inputs:
1. the product's HS or CN code;
2. the export volume for the most recent 12 months.
The Ecovane / Nanozeo team can use this information to estimate the likely reporting scope and embedded-emissions hotspots, then recommend the appropriate annual subscription level and third-party pathway.

Clarifying the Roles of SBTi and SSBTi
In this solution package, SBTi refers to the Science Based Targets initiative, including the science-based target-setting framework and its associated formal validation mechanism for corporate climate targets.
SSBTi is the abbreviation for the Supply-chain Science Based Targets Institute, with its official website at SSBTi.org. Its registered legal entity in Taiwan is 「社團法人一點五度科學減碳倡議標準協會」.
Initiated in Asia by the CJCHT Group, SSBTi serves as a collaboration, review and implementation platform for supply-chain sustainability. It helps supply-chain companies coordinate emissions-reduction actions and make continued progress toward net-zero goals.
Its core role is to translate corporate climate commitments, international frameworks and customer requirements into actionable supplier tasks, training programs, data rules, reporting requirements and connected information systems.
SSBTi does not replace the formal SBTi target-validation mechanism, nor does it directly replace qualified independent assurance, verification or certification bodies. Instead, SSBTi works through its professional collaboration network, connecting professors, reviewers, verifiers and specialist organizations with relevant qualifications, methodological capabilities and industry experience.
Based on customer requirements, project scope and applicable standards, this network provides report review and technical assessment that connect data quality and methodology with practical supply-chain management.
The scope may include customer-required LCA reports, EPD documentation, ISO 14064-1 organizational GHG inventory reports, ISO 14067 product carbon-footprint reports, CBAM reports, CDP disclosures and SBTi target-related documentation.
Where a project requires a formal assurance statement, validation opinion, certificate or registered publication, the final output remains subject to the applicable scheme rules and must be performed or issued by an independent organization holding the required qualifications and authorization for that specific program.
SSBTi addresses the most difficult work that remains after corporate targets have been established and reports have been reviewed: supplier onboarding, data coordination, capability building, management integration and continuous improvement. Its role is to help companies transform one-time reporting outcomes into a supply-chain management system that can operate and improve over time.
For member companies, SSBTi.org also functions as a shared third-party coordination platform, connecting value-chain leaders, suppliers, advisors, technology providers, industry, government and academic stakeholders, and qualified verification bodies. This enables companies to build a collaborative supply-chain ecosystem around shared environmental and sustainability objectives more efficiently.
