The European CSRD requires in-scope companies to report Scope 3 emissions — the value chain, not just their own operation. If your group runs or sources from an operation in Brazil, the destination of the electronics discarded here is part of that chain — and it needs evidence, not a generic statement. The service is performed in Brazil; the documentation is built for the auditor, wherever they sit.
Where disposal enters the value-chain report
What head office and the auditor ask for is not a promise of “sustainable disposal”: it is the trail connecting origin, inventory, movement, treatment and closure. Signs the requirement has already arrived — or is on its way:
- Head office sent a supplier questionnaire with questions about waste and end of life;
- A European buyer asked for evidence of destination and the improvised answer did not convince;
- The bank or the client has started asking for chain evidence and data — and disposal is part of it;
- Each due diligence round asks for more traceability than the one before.
What your company receives
Destination with evidence per collection
Photos and weights recorded at origin, inventory, NF, MTR and CDF where applicable and a destination certificate with a validatable QR code — the evidence is born in the operation, collection by collection.
Documents organised in the portal
The documents of each collection organised under the company’s registration, with an exportable history — the data series that feeds the value-chain report, in the format your ESG system uses.
Bridge to Villanova ESG
For the documentation control of the European market, the joint work with Villanova ESG structures the evidence into a dossier written for procurement, compliance and finance readers.
How it works
- Describe the operation and the requirement
Sites in Brazil, materials, approximate volume and what head office or the buyer is asking for.
- Technical assessment
The team assesses materials, locations and the applicable documentation. Terms are confirmed before anything is scheduled.
- Documented collection
Removal with photos, weights and inventory recorded at origin; destination with the documents applicable to the material and the service performed.
- Evidence in the portal — and, if contracted, the dossier
Documents organised per collection in the free portal. Structuring for the European market and the reports of contractable ESG documentation are separate services, with a written proposal.
Ecobraz does not issue certification and does not guarantee compliance with any norm or legislation: regulatory classification remains the responsibility of the company and the buyer. Carbon figures without independent validation are not presented as verified — an estimate is shown as an estimate.
Frequently asked questions
Does this guarantee CSRD compliance?
No. The CSRD requires in-scope companies to report Scope 3 emissions; documented disposal provides the evidence for the Brazilian end of that chain. Regulatory classification and the reporting itself remain the company’s responsibility.
Which documents make up the evidence?
Per collection: photos and weights recorded at origin, inventory, NF, MTR and CDF where applicable and a destination certificate with a validatable QR code. The set reflects the service actually performed.
And when head office asks for the European format?
The joint work with Villanova ESG structures the evidence into a dossier for procurement, compliance and finance readers — a separately contracted service, with a written proposal.
Is the portal paid?
No. The portal is free for every client, with no contract — access is enabled with the registered e-mail.
