Gingko21 Partners with Makersite

Gingko 21 and Makersite have formed a strategic partnership to accelerate the industrialization of digital eco-design and strengthen the reliability of environmental product reporting for businesses seeking a competitive edge in sustainability.

Since 2005, Gingko 21 has empowered enterprise and mid-market clients to practically implement eco-design and responsible innovation, helping them differentiate their offerings and meet evolving market demands.

Gingko 21 announces a strategic partnership with Makersite, an AI-powered product lifecycle intelligence platform, enabling clients manufacturers to clean , connect and enrich their product and supply chain data for improved decision making.With more that two decades of experience, Gingko 21 is recognized as a leader in the French market. The firm excels at bridging technical, economic, environmental, and human considerations—transforming sustainability into a lever for measurable business performance and value creation.

This partnership unites Gingko 21’s consulting expertise, trusted by France’s largest companies and SMEs, with Makersite’s advanced technology. Together, they deliver an integrated solution that supports organizations in achieving regulatory compliance, mastering environmental data, and advancing the environmental performance of their product portfolios. This enables clients to drive strategic transformation and gain a competitive advantage.

An alliance at the service of environmental and economic performance

With accelerating European regulatory requirements and the growing importance of low-carbon strategies, companies now require reliable, efficient, and scalable solutions to operationalize their environmental strategy and transform their product portfolios.

Through this alliance, Gingko 21 leverages Makersite technology to create true “environmental digital twins”—dynamic product representations that integrate real-time environmental data, models, and impact indicators, empowering companies to make data-driven decisions across the value chain.

 

The joint offer allows:

  • The automation of environmental assessments (ACV, PCF Scope 3, etc.) from product nomenclatures and supplier data;
  • The generation and updating of environmental declarations (e.g. EPD, PCF, FDES and PEP Ecopassport, etc.) and digital product passports (DPP), in accordance with ESPR regulations;
  • Seamless integration with business systems (PLM, CAD, ERP, supplier databases), enabling R&D, Procurement, Quality, and Sustainability teams to simulate real-time material-cost-impact trade-offs and support informed decision-making from the earliest stages of product development.

A combined approach: strategic consulting and data intelligence

This partnership reflects the strengths of the two partners:

  • Gingko 21 brings its consulting experience on the French market in terms of life cycle analysis, eco-design, eco-innovation, and sustainable transformation, its detailed knowledge of issues related to data collection for LCA, and the exploitation of results to improve environmental performance.
  • Makersite provides a Product Lifecycle Intelligence platform, which integrates with the company’s internal data and more than 150 international databases (Ecoinvent, Carbon Minds etc.), and which allows modeling and calculating in real time, the environmental, social, and economic impact of a product or a complete portfolio of products, over the entire life cycle.

 The shared objective: to provide decision-makers with a solution that operationalizes and measures their carbon and environmental strategies, delivering control and transparency to support product and business transformation.
