What’s New At Fitsol?
Introducing Fitsol’s Green Packaging Asset Design Tool
Efficiency, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness are at the core of every supply chain challenge, and packaging plays a critical role. Fitsol’s Green Packaging Asset Design Tool is an all-in-one solution that helps businesses design, optimize, and manage returnable packaging assets across their lifecycle.
From outer boxes to custom inserts, our tool considers product dimensions, weight, fragility, handling methods, and orientation restrictions to recommend packaging solutions that reduce material use, cut emissions, and save costs. The tool also provides comparative insights, allowing companies to see how our solutions stack up against their current packaging in terms of space utilization, sustainability, and cost efficiency. Beyond design, it offers guidance for optimal truck loading and logistics planning, ensuring maximum efficiency in transportation.
By integrating intelligent design with real-time data and AI-driven recommendations, the Green Packaging Asset Design Tool enables companies, particularly in the auto parts sector, to move towards greener, more resilient supply chains. Whether for domestic operations or exports, our solution simplifies decision-making while supporting Net-Zero logistics goals. With Fitsol, sustainable packaging is no longer just a compliance requirement, it becomes a strategic advantage.

Attendees will also discover a range of practical sustainability innovations, from renewable energy and smart waste management to decarbonization and carbon capture technologies.
The session includes presentations and networking opportunities, offering participants a chance to explore collaborations, pilots, and partnerships that align sustainability with business growth.
The Fitsol Fix
Sector Spotlight: Aluminium – Forging Low-Carbon Pathways
The aluminium sector is highly energy-intensive, with primary production consuming large amounts of electricity and contributing significantly to global CO₂ emissions. As regulators, investors, and buyers demand greener value chains, aluminium producers face mounting pressure to decarbonize.
Key Sustainability Challenges
Electricity dependency: Primary aluminium production relies heavily on grid electricity, often sourced from fossil fuels.
Process emissions: Electrolysis of alumina generates direct CO₂ and perfluorocarbon (PFC) emissions.
Scope 3 complexity: Raw material sourcing, logistics, and downstream applications make full carbon accounting challenging.
Compliance pressure: Frameworks such as BRSR (India), GRI, and CBAM (EU) require verified, transparent reporting of emissions.
These challenges increase both compliance and operational risks. Without proactive measures, aluminium producers face higher carbon costs, stricter export regulations, and reputational exposure in global markets.
Pathways to Decarbonization
Renewable electricity sourcing to reduce Scope 2 emissions.
Process optimization & low-carbon smelting technologies to cut direct emissions.
Recycling & secondary aluminium production to minimize energy use and emissions.
Carbon capture & storage (CCS) for unavoidable process emissions.
Fitsol: Turning Challenges into Action
At Fitsol, we help aluminium producers navigate decarbonization with AI-enabled carbon intelligence:
GreenCount: Tracks emissions across production, energy inputs, logistics, and Scope 3 suppliers.
GreenAlign: Maps your data to BRSR, GRI, CBAM, and other frameworks—ensuring audit-ready compliance.
GreenTrack: Provides dashboards to report emissions and model scenarios such as renewable integration, recycling strategies, or process optimization before investment.
By combining compliance, carbon accounting, and AI-powered scenario planning, Fitsol empowers aluminium companies to move from reactive reporting to proactive decarbonization.
Around the World: Trends Shaping Climate & Business
EU Simplifies Carbon Border Rules for Importers
The European Union has approved reforms to its Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), making compliance easier for businesses while keeping climate coverage at around 99% of embedded emissions. A key change introduces a 50-tonne threshold, exempting most small and medium-sized importers from reporting obligations. The new rules also streamline registration, emissions calculation, and penalties, reducing administrative burdens and avoiding bottlenecks when CBAM fully starts in 2026. EU officials say the reforms help businesses focus on the green transition without compromising climate goals, ensuring that large industrial flows continue to meet full reporting and levy requirements.

EU Businesses Back Stronger Sustainability Rules Than Omnibus Proposals
A recent survey of over 2,500 companies across Germany, France, Italy, Poland, and Spain shows that most EU businesses support maintaining tougher sustainability reporting and due diligence requirements than those proposed under the European Commission’s Omnibus simplification package. Companies, including SMEs and large firms, see these rules as boosting competitiveness and promoting environmental sustainability. Nearly 70% favor a company size threshold of 1,000 employees or less for mandatory reporting, while over half agree large companies should request sustainability data from smaller suppliers proportionately. Around 63% support climate transition plans, and businesses recognize risks throughout the supply chain, underlining the value of strong due diligence. Overall, EU companies favor keeping robust sustainability frameworks in place, emphasizing that clear reporting and accountability drive long-term growth and responsible business practices.

China’s Carbon Market Expands to Heavy Industries
China’s national carbon market, the largest in the world by emissions covered, has now expanded to include heavy industries such as steel, cement, and aluminum smelting, regulating over 60% of the nation’s CO₂ emissions. This marks the first major broadening of the Emissions Trading System (ETS) since its 2021 launch, which initially covered only the power sector, and adds over 1,300 new industrial emitters. The market is seeing record trading volumes, with transactions reaching 18.1 billion yuan in 2024, and rising carbon prices, which crossed 100 yuan per tonne for the first time in April 2024. China is preparing to include civil aviation next, reflecting its growing commitment to scaling climate action through market mechanisms.

EU to Launch Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism in 2026
The European Union (EU) will introduce its carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) starting January 1, 2026. The policy will apply to imports of steel, cement, fertilizers, aluminium, and hydrogen across the 27-nation bloc. CBAM aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, encourage cleaner global production, and prevent “carbon leakage,” where companies shift operations to countries with weaker climate rules. Importers will need to buy CBAM certificates covering the emissions linked to their goods, with prices aligned to the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS), ensuring fair carbon pricing and a level playing field for EU businesses.

Serbia Introduces Carbon Pricing Ahead of EU CBAM
Serbia’s Ministry of Finance has opened public consultations on draft laws for a greenhouse gas emissions tax and a carbon-intensive product imports tax, both at EUR 4 per ton of CO₂. Targeting sectors like electricity, cement, steel, aluminum, hydrogen, and fertilizers, the measures aim to promote cleaner production and energy efficiency. Public consultations run until October 21, with in-person and online discussions scheduled. Both laws are set to take effect on January 1, 2026, aligning with the EU’s CBAM. Importers paying recognized CO₂ taxes in their home country will have these amounts deducted from CBAM, which is expected to rise annually until 2034, matching EU ETS certificate prices.
