Sustained’s API Integrations

If your team manages product data in a PLM or ERP system, you already have the source of truth for all of your products. Using Sustained’s flexible API integrations, you can embed powerful environmental impact data directly into the systems your teams already work with, no extra platforms or added complexity. Keep your workflows connected, avoid duplication, and put sustainability insights right where they’re needed most.

Why Integrate Sustained Into Your Existing Tools?

Sustained connects seamlessly with your existing platforms, delivering environmental insights directly into the tools your teams already use, whether for costing, formulation, procurement, or ingredient management.

With our API, you can push real-time environmental impact data into your PLM or ERP systems. Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) results, Product Carbon Footprints (PCFs), and other key sustainability metrics sit alongside your product data. This makes environmental performance part of everyday decision-making without disrupting workflows.

What makes Sustained's API different?

✅ Enterprise-grade LCA engine
Run full lifecycle assessments using best-in-class databases and methodologies.
🧠 AI-powered data mapping
Automatically match your data to secondary datasets, even for complex and nested recipes.
📊 Real-time reporting
Generate on-demand PCFs and PEF-aligned reports and feed those insights back into your core systems.
🌱 Primary data ready
Incorporate supplier-specific emission factor data for more accurate Scope 3 and product-level reporting.

Common Use Cases

  1. Product development & reformulation
    Measure and reduce environmental impact early in the design process to respond to briefs efficiently and avoid late stage costly design changes. 
  2. Supplier collaboration
    Strengthen Scope 3 visibility by leveraging shared ingredient and packaging data.
  3. Sustainability & ESG reporting
    Automate Scope 3 reporting by pulling data from the systems you already use, no spreadsheets required.
