Less CO2 - Full power.
As a leading company in the development and production of plastic solutions for the automotive and industrial sectors, we are aware of our responsibility for the future.
In view of the growing importance of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG emissions) in the product life cycle, we have set ourselves the goal of reducing the PCF of our plastic solutions. We base our calculations on DIN EN ISO 14067 and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG) and consider the cradle-to-gate part of the product life cycle.
Calculate the potential to reduce the PCF for our P4C articles with the help of our calculator. It's that simple:
Step 1: Select the article
.
Step 2: Press the button "THG" calculate.
Step 3: You will receive the result based on the calculation of the data from 2023.

The success factor material
„At Pöppelmann K-TECH®, we do not ask ourselves whether we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but how high the reduction potential is. A key success factor and strong lever for a significant GHG reduction is the plastic material that we process. We achieve a real boost effect through the use of recyclates from industrial sources (PIR). Here we can directly demonstrate savings of over 80% in some cases, and this has already been achieved millions of times in series production while maintaining the quality of the articles.

Glossary
PCF
The Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) records all greenhouse gas emissions generated during the entire life cycle of a product. It is therefore an established method for determining the climate impact of a product.
Composition of the PCF by scope
Greenhouse gas emissions from processing at Pöppelmann:
These are the Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions of Pöppelmann.
Pöppelmann publishes an annual environmental statement. As part of this environmental statement, we determine the Scope 1 emissions and Scope 2 emissions that Pöppelmann causes through the production of plastic components, primarily through energy consumption. Allocating these emissions to all products results in the stated product share of greenhouse gas emissions.
Greenhouse gas emissions due to the material used:
A major factor influencing the greenhouse gas emissions of a product in Scope 3 is the plastic used. In addition, there are colors and additives as well as possible seals.
Greenhouse gas emissions due to other expenses:
Scope 3 emissions are also caused by production through upstream transportation, packaging and production waste.
Greenhouse gas emissions from community emissions:
In addition, Pöppelmann also causes Scope 3 emissions for waste, water, IT hardware, oils, metals, office materials, services, commuting, business trips and capital goods.
THG
Greenhouse gas emissions are the release of gases into the atmosphere that contribute to the warming of the earth's atmosphere and are therefore an important factor in climate change.
CO2e
CO2-Äquivalent is a unit of measurement that makes different greenhouse gases comparable on a uniform basis and indicates how much CO2 would have to be emitted to produce the same climate impact as other greenhouse gases.
