Unique Data Value Proposition

Tracenable's waste management data product sets the market benchmark for precision, standardization, reliability, and integrity. Learn why our data stands apart:
Comprehensive Standardization
When company waste data do not align with standard waste reporting frameworks, our team of environmental engineers meticulously maps the reported data to the correct waste categories and disposal methods. This guarantees uniformity and comparability across our dataset, bridging the gap created by diverse reporting formats.
Accuracy in Every Metric
Our advanced cross-source data precision matching algorithm ensures that the most accurate data is always delivered. For instance, an exact figure like 15,245 metric tons of waste is prioritized over a rounded-sm figure like 15,000 metric tons, reflecting our dedication to precision and detail.
Unbiased Data Integrity
Our approach is grounded in delivering waste data exactly as reported by companies, without making inferences or estimates for undisclosed data. This strict adherence to factual reporting ensures the integrity of the data you receive, providing an unaltered and accurate view of corporate waste management.
End-to-End Data Traceability
Every data point we provide is directly traceable to its original source, down to the page numbers and exact coordinates within source documents. This level of detail ensures you have access to the most reliable and verifiable waste data available, equipping you with data you can trust completely.
Full-Scope Boundary Verification
We tag waste figures that do not cover a company's entire organizational or operational boundaries with an 'Incomplete Boundaries' attribute. This attribute enhances transparency and ensures the comparability of our data by keeping you informed of any potential limitations.
