The EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) has officially entered a new phase in 2026, and exporters to Europe can no longer afford to ignore it. If you are exporting steel, aluminum, cement, fertilizer, or other carbon-intensive products to the European Union, CBAM will directly impact your costs, pricing strategy, and competitiveness.
Under CBAM, EU importers are now required not only to report carbon emissions embedded in imported goods, but also to pay for those emissions through CBAM Certificates. This effectively works like a carbon-based import duty, designed to prevent carbon leakage and protect European manufacturers from cheaper, high-emission imports.
In this video, we break down how CBAM actually works in practice, who ultimately pays for the certificates, and why many European buyers are pushing the cost back to exporters in countries like India, China, Turkey, and beyond. If your factory’s emissions are higher than EU benchmarks, your product may no longer be “cheap” once it reaches the European border.
You’ll learn why measuring embedded emissions accurately is critical, how default emission values can increase your CBAM costs, and when exporters may be eligible for reductions if they already pay a carbon tax in their home country. We also explain how CBAM affects pricing negotiations, supply chains, HS Codes, and long-term access to European clients.
Whether you are a manufacturer, exporter, compliance manager, or supply-chain professional, this video will help you understand what CBAM means for your business in 2026 and beyond, and what steps you need to take now to stay competitive in the EU market.
If you are struggling with CBAM reporting, emission calculations, or understanding your obligations, this video is a must-watch.
