For Indian steel and aluminium exporters

Verified carbon data for Indian steel and aluminium exporters.

Your EU buyers now pay CBAM on the emissions in your products. Without your real data, they pay on high default values. Embedr measures your actual emissions so they pay less, and keep ordering from you.

We come to your plant, work with the records you already have, and connect you with the EU buyers who need the data.

For exporters of fasteners, pipes, castings, forgings, steel and aluminium products to the EU.

The problem

Since 1 January 2026, CBAM is a real cost for your EU buyers.

Importers pay for your carbon

EU importers of steel and aluminium must pay for the carbon emitted to make what they buy.

No data means penalty defaults

If you can't share verified emissions data, they must use EU default values, plus a mark-up that rises from 10% in 2026 to 30% from 2028.

Buyers are already asking

Defaults are usually far higher than a real plant's emissions. Buyers are asking suppliers for data, and some will switch to the ones who have it.

What's at stake

Example: 500 tonnes a year of steel fasteners to the EU.

Using verified data instead of defaults could save your buyer around ₹1.5 crore in 2026, rising each year as the mark-up grows.

Illustrative estimate. Actual savings depend on your process, your raw-material suppliers and the carbon price.

How it works

Three steps from factory records to CBAM-ready data

1

Plant data audit

We visit your plant and collect what's needed: fuel, electricity, raw materials and production volumes.

2

Emissions per product

We calculate the emissions per tonne of each product, following the EU's CBAM rules.

3

CBAM-ready report

You get a report in the EU's official format to share with your buyers, and we support you through verification by an accredited verifier.

FAQ

Common questions

Is CBAM mandatory?

Yes, for EU importers bringing in more than 50 tonnes a year of covered steel and aluminium goods, from 1 January 2026. As an exporter you aren't legally required to share data, but without it your buyer pays on defaults.

Who pays for CBAM?

The EU importer buys CBAM certificates. In practice, that cost shows up in price talks with you.

Do I need a verifier?

For your buyer to use your real values, the data must be checked by an accredited verifier. We prepare your data so verification goes smoothly. Embedr does not act as the verifier.

How long does it take?

Usually a few weeks, depending on how quickly your records are available.

Do I need to buy software?

No. You get the report and the files your buyer needs for their CBAM declaration.
