Summary

The analysis reveals a critical insight into packaging sustainability: over 60-80% of a component's total Carbon-2 Footprint originates from the raw material itself. This raw material accounts for 60-80% of the total carbon footprint before any goods reach the end user, regardless of how many units are produced. However, using climate-smarter polymeric alternatives can significantly reduce the environmental impact of packaging. The provided calculator allows users to easily simulate exactly how much climate impact is reduced by replacing a material with a climate-smarter alternative.
