The 5 steps of climate action

The following 5 steps are required for ClimatePartner certification:

Step 1
Carbon footprint icon

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 go 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 November 2023

Carbon footprint (in CO₂ equivalents):

5.36 Kg CO₂

for 1 product of 1 kg

This carbon footprint is based on the following product life cycle:

CRADLE TO CUSTOMER PLUS AND END OF LIFE

Cradle-to-customer plus end-of-life

The following emissions were taken into account in the life cycle stages of the product:
  • 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
Step 2
reduction targets icon

Reduction targets

Reduction targets are an essential part of a company's climate action strategy. By setting concrete targets, companies define the areas, scope, and timeframe for implementing reduction measures.*

Scope 1 and 2 emissions

This company has committed to defining and disclosing its company-related reduction targets for scope 1 and 2 emissions within 12 months after the certification start date.

Scope 3 emissions

This company has committed to defining and disclosing its reduction targets by

2024

Step 3
Reduction Measures Icon

Reduction measures

To meet their reduction targets, it is important for companies to plan and implement concrete measures to achieve effective climate action. This section shows you the reduction measures that have been implemented.*

Product-related reduction measures

All products that are ClimatePartner certified have at least one implemented reduction measure.

Company-related reduction measures

This section shows you the reduction measures that the company has implemented throughout their operations.

100%

of the total electricity consumption is purchased green electricity

*A consumption greater than 100% indicates the energy is fed into the electricity grid and can be used by other households and companies.
Step 4
Impact contribution icon

Climate projects

This company financially contributes to certified climate projects for a specific amount of emissions. The projects are regularly audited by independent third parties, and contribute to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Number of projects supported:

5

Climate projects were financed for the following amount of emissions:

178,986.81 Kg CO₂ *

* The amount of GHG emissions shown for the financial contribution to climate projects (step 4) may be different from the total carbon footprint (step 1). Differences may result from an allocation of GHG emissions between multiple certifications for the same company (e. g. certification of the company as well as certain products). Furthermore, we recommend companies to add a 10 percent safety margin to the carbon footprint to address uncertainties related to the underlying data. Also, companies may source products or services for which a financial contribution has already been made via a third party, which results in a lower financial contribution via ClimatePartner.
