Co2 Footprint Calculator
A simple, on-page tool that lets you quickly estimate the carbon emissions of any product, based on its weight and recycled content. It also numbers each “Product” entry and makes it easy to copy the full summary—including disclaimers and source references—in one click.
Ensure disclaimers are always sent.
This is not a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
A full LCA delivers a far more precise emissions estimate by tracking every life-cycle stage, including:
-
Extraction and transport of crude oil to the resin-cracking plant
-
Resin production and transport to the film manufacturer
-
Energy consumed during film extrusion, finishing, and packaging
-
Delivery of finished film to Vexel and onward shipment to your customer
-
All secondary packaging and handling involved
Because an LCA measures “well-to-wheel” impacts across raw materials, processing, distribution, use and end-of-life, it typically requires detailed data and the support of an independent, third-party consultant.
