Fundação Eco+

What Fundação Eco+ does

Fundação Eco+ is a Brazilian sustainability consulting foundation that delivers socio-environmental impact management services to companies, industrial sectors, and production chains, while also developing public interest studies. The foundation operates across three strategic fronts: biodiversity and sustainable chains, carbon management, and circular economy, applying Life Cycle Assessment (ACV/LCA) and Life Cycle Thinking as its core methodology, structured around a four-axis framework covering awareness, strategic planning, measurement and monitoring, and reporting aligned with international standards.

Its service portfolio is split between free self-serve digital tools (SustentBOT for sustainability maturity diagnosis, CarbonBot for five-stage carbon management assessment, Calculadora de emissões for personal carbon footprint, and Maturidade em Capital Natural for natural capital maturity evaluation) and fee-based consulting engagements in Sustainability Governance, Social Impact Management, Natural Capital Management, and Impact Measurement. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The foundation monetizes primarily through direct enterprise consulting, with the digital tools functioning as lead generation and awareness mechanisms rather than paid products.

Commercially, Fundação Eco+ sells primarily into Brazilian enterprises and is a founding participant in Rede ACV (Rede Empresarial Brasileira de Avaliação de Ciclo de Vida, launched in 2013). It maintains strategic alliances with FGV EAESP, EMBRAPA, and the Brazilian-German Chamber of Commerce (AHK), and lists major corporate clients and partners including Raízen, Braskem, Nestlé, Cargill, BASF, Kimberly Clark, Sylvamo, Simpar, FCA, Vedacit, and others across chemicals, agribusiness, energy, manufacturing, and consumer goods. Distribution is direct enterprise sales for consulting, complemented by self-serve digital access and content-led demand generation through LinkedIn, YouTube, a Spotify podcast, a blog, reports, and e-books. The organization is a privately held foundation domiciled in Brazil.
