About the company

Klimato has developed a web application which calculates the CO2e impact from foods. We have developed our own quantifiable CO2e label which then is labelled on a restaurant menu or food packaging to help organisations show transparency towards consumers and promote climate friendly alternatives. Also, Klimato assists those customers which may want to compensate for their overall CO2e impact through Klimatos selected projects within renewable energy. All of this is done by the customers themselves, through the web application.

Klimato is targeting businesses in the food industry, from simple restaurants to large food producers and catering businesses. By offering these organisations a simple and cost-effective way to promote environmental friendly food consumption and strengthen their environmental image, we aim to become a market leader for sustainable food services.

We started working on Klimato in July 2017, and we launched our beta version in May earlier this year. During the summer, 10 users have been testing the application and the feedback has been fantastic. Starting this fall, we are commercially launching with paying customers combined with an intense development phase through our inclusion in two acknowledged accelerator programmes in the Stockholm region.
