INEOS Styrolution Advances Emissions Transparency with Global Product Carbon Footprint Rollout
- PCF platform automates product carbon footprint calculations and enables customer monitoring of scope 3.1 emissions for INEOS Styrolution products
- Methodology certified by TÜV Rheinland and aligned with globally recognised sustainability standards
With the use of a cutting-edge technique, INEOS Styrolution now offers Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) data for every one of its products, providing clear emissions data from the procurement of raw materials through manufacture and all the way to the factory gate. The Atos PCF platform is used to calculate PCF data, and TÜV Rheinland has verified the approach.
Customers can use this information to monitor scope 3.1 emissions for each product they buy from INEOS Styrolution, facilitating more precise reporting, adherence to climate-related regulations, and enhanced supply chain transparency.
“By measuring the carbon footprint of our global product portfolio, we take responsibility for our impact while enabling our customers to do the same,” states Steve Harrington, CEO, INEOS Styrolution. “This tool enables us to be transparent about our emissions and product carbon footprints, while equipping our customers with the data they need to target scope 3 reductions and meet their climate targets.”
With automated, product-level carbon footprint calculations according to a certified methodology in place, INEOS Styrolution is among the few in the chemical industry offering its customers product-specific emissions data across its entire offering.
Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) refers to the total greenhouse gas emissions associated with a product, from raw material extraction through manufacturing to the point it leaves the production site. This “cradle-to-gate” view helps companies and customers better understand the climate impact of individual products and identify opportunities to reduce emissions across the value chain. INEOS Styrolution’s PCF methodology follows international standards, including ISO 14067:2018, the Together for Sustainability (TfS) PCF Guideline (V3.0), and the GHG Protocol.
Scope 3 emissions refer to indirect greenhouse gas emissions that occur in the value chain of the reporting company – such as those from raw material production, logistics, product use, or disposal.
Scope 3.1, a key subcategory, includes emissions from purchased goods and services – typically the largest share of emissions for manufacturing companies.
