Footprint type: refers to the type of calculation. All results are presented as climate footprints and they are based on standard LCA calculations. Results are calculated to represent a change in demand for the product under study, i.e. a so-called consequential footprint. By-products are modelled using substitution, and market supply mixes are marginal, i.e. constrained suppliers are not part of the supply mix.

Cradle to gate (production) refers to the footprint of the production of a product in a country. The inputs to a production process are raw materials, energy etc.

Cradle to consumer (market) refers to the footprint of the purchase of a product at a market in a country. The inputs to a product market is products from different producers. E.g. the market for televisions in Denmark has inputs of televisions from different countries.
