Sustainability Insights
Baseline and then cut your product’s carbon footprint with aPriori's powerful and precise 3D CAD-driven analysis and guidance. Optimize product design and manufacturing for profit, CO₂e, and manufacturability. And evaluate cost, carbon, and manufacturability trade-offs with aPriori.
We provide the only manufacturing intelligence platform to optimize products for cost, manufacturability, and sustainability. Importantly, aPriori measures greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions throughout a manufacturer’s supply chain (Scope 3).

“How do you bring sustainability insights into your design process? The same way we bring the cost perspective into engineering. aPriori makes it fact-based. We’re calculating on the same methodology. Now carbon footprint, alongside cost, becomes a new kind of currency.”

How Does aPriori’s Manufacturing Sustainability Solution Work?
aPriori has two decades of experience providing manufacturing intelligence to optimize products for cost and manufacturability. Building on its cost and manufacturability expertise, aPriori now integrates ecoinvent’s respected life cycle inventory database into its 3D CAD analysis engine.
With aPriori, design and manufacturing teams can extend industry-proven design and digital factory data to get transparent CO₂e footprint information. Learn more about our Manufacturing Insights Platform.

Gain Powerful Manufacturing Sustainability Insights
• Material Costs. Capture all GHG emissions from raw material through to material utilization with aPriori’s comprehensive and transparent calculations.
• Manufacturing Process Costs. Leverage precise 3D CAD-driven algorithms that can be configured to your operations – including energy use and electricity mix factors – to calculate process CO₂e.
• Total CO₂e. Establish the total CO₂e value quickly by adding the material CO₂e and process CO₂e. Manufacturers can then use total CO₂e to identify the largest contributors and then focus on mitigation.
