Expected future treatment and disposal emissions at end of life for products sold by the reporting company during the reporting year.
Metric family relationship
One category result, retained inside its family
This is the quantitative Category 12 component of Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by category. It has a fixed category boundary and a separate reported value; the parent preserves the consolidated fifteen-category table.

Reporting method
How to report this child metric
Report the category result in tCO₂e using a method permitted for this category. There is no honest universal arithmetic formula across every activity and data-quality method.
- Reported
- A numeric category amount is provided with its method and data coverage.
- Not applicable
- The category does not apply and the reason is stated; this is not a numeric zero.
- Justified exclusion
- The category is excluded with an explicit rationale; this is not a numeric zero.
Required context
- Reporting entity, period, organisational boundary and value-chain boundary
- Covered gases and the global-warming-potential source and edition
- Category calculation method, activity data, emission factors and assumptions
- Primary-data coverage and any estimation or extrapolation used
