CALCULATE CO2 FOOTPRINT NOW
AND PROTECT THE CLIMATE.
Given the growing importance of greenhouse gas emissions* in the product life cycle, we have set ourselves the goal of reducing the CO2 footprint** of our plastic solutions.
PÖPPELMANN blue® is our initiative for resource conservation and climate protection.
We already offer more sustainable versions made from recycled materials for more than half of the KAPSTO® product portfolio.

Optimise your CO2 footprint by up to 45%!
Through a non-binding consultation, we can jointly identify further potential for optimising the CO2 footprint.
We can take customer-specific factors into account on request:
-
More sustainable designs and article designs
-
The latest findings in material development
-
Your own article numbers
-
Your article lists as a portfolio analysis
A calculation according to international standards
We base our calculation of the PCF on DIN EN ISO 14067 and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG) and consider the "cradle-to-gate" balance area.
Further information can be found clearly summarised in our glossary.

Glossary
Composition of the PCF by scope of the CCF
Greenhouse gas emissions from processing at Pöppelmann:
Processing at Pöppelmann is responsible for Scope 1 emissions, Scope 2 emissions and energy and fuel-related Scope 3 emissions (Scope 3.3) from our Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF).
Greenhouse gas emissions from the material used:
A major factor influencing the greenhouse gas emissions of a product is the plastic used. In addition, there are colours and additives as well as possible seals (part of Scope 3.1).
Greenhouse gas emissions from other emissions:
Production also causes emissions from packaging (part of Scope 3.1), upstream transport (Scope 3.4) and production waste (part of Scope 3.5).
Greenhouse gas emissions from common emissions:
Pöppelmann also causes emissions for water, IT hardware, oils, metals, office materials, services (part of Scope 3.1), capital goods (Scope 3.2), waste (part of Scope 3.5), business trips (Scope 3.6) and commuting (Scope 3.7).
Abbreviations
PCF
The Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) shown here provides information on all greenhouse gas emissions in the ‘cradle-to-gate’ balance area. This means from raw material extraction to the Pöppelmann factory gate. It is an established method for determining the climate impact of a product. We base our calculation of the PCF on DIN EN ISO 14067 and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG).
CCF
The corporate carbon footprint provides information on all greenhouse gas emissions caused by our company in a financial year.
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 the cause of climate change.
CO2e
CO2 equivalent is the unit of measurement that makes different greenhouse gases comparable and specifies them on a standardised basis. 1 kg CO2e of any greenhouse gas has the same climate impact as 1 kg CO2.
Validity
Much of the underlying data is updated at least once a year. Therefore, the PCF shown above is valid for a maximum of 12 months. If you require further information or assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.
