What is included in the processing of sold products category?

The processing of sold products category includes the emissions that occur from the processing of sold intermediate products by third parties (e.g., manufacturers) subsequent to sale by the reporting organization. Intermediate products are any product that requires further processing, transformation, or inclusion in another product before use. Examples of intermediate products include adhesives, chemicals, plastics, or anything else that is further processed before its final sale. Emissions from this category may occur after the reporting year. Processing of sold products is category 10 of scope 3.
