Product Carbon Footprint
KRAIBURG TPE observes that the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) is increasingly establishing itself as a competitive differentiating criterion that provides customers with verified information about the climate impact of their purchasing decisions. The PCF calculation method is defined by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and by various ISO standards.
Taking into account and strictly adhering to the valid calculation method for the Cradle-to-Gate system boundary, the customer is informed about the PCF value of the purchased TPE. For more information on the calculation and general information on PCF, customers can contact their sales representative.

Especially in the case of bio-based, the search for raw materials and qualification of sources is a key issue with challenges. We are confident that we will master these. Customers and interested parties can look forward to 2023, as in all likelihood the new products will be launched in the course of the year.
