Organization with CFP SYSTEMATIC APPROACH certified by Bureau Veritas Italia Spa in compliance with ISO 14067:2018
To ensure ever increasing sustainability, COMPAC is the first company in the industry to have obtained the CFP (Carbon Footprint) – Systematic Approach certificate in compliance with ISO 14067:2018 standard relating to the procedure for calculating the quantity of CO₂ emitted in the entire life cycle of their CARDBOARD + PET CONTAINERS.
We carried out a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) survey according to the methodology defined by the ISO 14067:2018 standard to pursue the CFP (Carbon Footprint) – Systematic Approach CERTIFICATION.
LCA is the tool that allows you to measure the environmental impact generated by the various processes that affect the life cycle of a product in order to evaluate its ecological footprint and improve its relationship with the environment.
This study requires analyzing each phase of the development of a product (from cradle to gate): from the creation of the raw material → transport to Compac → container production → transport to our retailer customer → transport from the retailer to the user customer (the packager) → disposal of the product after use.
