Every deal, weighed and counted.
Reselling a machine instead of scrapping it avoids somewhere between 18 and 64 tonnes of CO₂e, depending on class. We don’t estimate it — we measure it, from the OEM’s own lifecycle data, and sign the report.
That’s roughly what 10,400 European households emit in a year. It’s also the only honest way to price a circular machine: if we pretended it was zero, we’d be lying; if we claimed it was the full embodied carbon, we’d be double-counting. We attribute what the re-sale avoided versus a new-build replacement.
How we count. Properly.
Start from the OEM's own LCA
For each machine class, we source the manufacturer's published cradle-to-gate lifecycle assessment. Where Cat, Volvo, or Liebherr publish per-model EPDs, we use them verbatim. Where they don't, we use the equivalent class average from the EMEP/EEA 2024 dataset.
Subtract the residual life
A re-sold machine still wears out. We calculate remaining useful life from the inspection-report reading (hours + condition score) and attribute only the unfulfilled fraction of the original embodied carbon.
Add end-of-life offsets
Reselling delays the end-of-life recycling moment. We apply the IEA's 2024 grid-decarbonisation trajectory to discount the future recycling emissions appropriately.
Net the transport cost
Moving a 23-tonne loader from Oslo to Milan is not free in carbon terms. We subtract the actual transport emissions, using the chosen carrier's fuel type and distance.
Sign, timestamp, publish
Each report is signed with Rekyndo's private key and timestamped on the transaction ledger. The underlying numbers are downloadable as CSV and reproducible by any auditor with the inputs.
A report your auditor already knows how to read.
