Scroll down to see how the requirements were met.
Carbon footprints
A product carbon footprint (PCF) provides information about the impact of a product on global warming through its associated emissions. These carbon footprints take into account the materials and energy that goes into different phases of a product's life cycle, such as the extraction of raw materials that make up the product, production processes, transportation, and other supporting processes.
This carbon footprint calculation was completed in January 2023Carbon footprint (in CO₂ equivalents):
53.37 Kg CO₂
for 1,000 pieces
This carbon footprint is based on the following product life cycle:
Cradle-to-customer plus end-of-life
- Extraction and pre-processing of raw materials and packaging
- Transportation from supplier to manufacturer
- Production of the final product
- Delivery of the product to the first customer
- Disposal processes for the product and its packaging
