Production Tools

Our online tools allow productions to quickly measure their environmental impact and gain recognition for putting green practices in place.

What is production carbon calculation?

Using data you already have at your finger tips, our bespoke calculator allows productions to quickly understand their environmental impact.

If you’re producing for BBC, ITV, Channel 4, UKTV, Sky or Netflix, you’ll need to calculate your carbon footprint with us.

Simply provide some basic information about your production office, studio, travel, accommodation locations, materials used disposal and post-production, and the rest is, well… maths.

What is sustainable production certification?

Certification is the easiest way to be introduced to sustainable production techniques and get rewarded for putting them into place.

Productions that successfully complete the certification will be awarded a 1, 2 or 3 star certificate and be given use of the albert Sustainable Production logo on their end board credits.

Our tools are free to use. To register, drop us an email with your company info, including the email addresses of both the production team member and the head of production who will complete and check submissions.
