P\u00f6ppelmann FAMAC now offers its customers such an assessment.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/?s=p%C3%B6ppelmann\">P\u00f6ppelmann FAMAC<\/a> combines quality and sustainability with its resource-saving plastic products. The plastics specialist makes it possible to <strong>calculate the GHG emissions generated during the manufacture of specific products<\/strong>. For example, existing empirical values for the production technology used are utilised for this purpose. The definition of greenhouse gases does not only include CO<sub>2<\/sub> but also methane, nitrous oxide and ozone, among other things, as stipulated in the Kyoto Protocol. The results of the calculations are then used for optimisation in P\u00f6ppelmann FAMAC's product development. On this basis, innovative solutions are created that conserve resources and reduce GHG emissions. These measures can also be applied to strictly regulated sectors such as the pharmaceutical industry or medical technology.<\/p>\n<p>Large quantities of GHG emissions have already been saved in this way for numerous articles, e.g. through significant <strong>Material reductions<\/strong> (weight-reduced tablet dispenser), more recyclable mono-PP tablet dispensers, reusability (reusable trays for food retailers), logistical optimisations (airway filter housings for medical technology) or even the use of post-consumer recyclates that completely close the material cycle (non-food universal packaging, reaction vessels for the pharmaceutical industry).<\/p><div class=\"packa-in-post-alle\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"packa-3778703682\"><div id=\"packa-1513110396\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/newsletter\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"PJ Self-promotion English 03\"><!--noptimize--><img src=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png 840w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-18x5.png 18w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-332x83.png 332w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-664x166.png 664w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-688x172.png 688w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" width=\"840\" height=\"210\"  style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" \/><!--\/noptimize--><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<p>More sustainable product development with the calculation of specific GHG emissions is part of the P\u00f6ppelmann Group's comprehensive climate strategy. In order to do justice to the increasingly important environmental aspect of greenhouse gas emissions and to further strengthen the Group's contribution to climate protection, the Group has calculated its Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF) for 2021. It provides information on the sources of GHG emissions in relation to the company's various business activities, and <strong>shows reduction potentials<\/strong>. Based on these calculations, P\u00f6ppelmann defined its own climate targets (science-based targets) for reducing GHG emissions in accordance with the recognised Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) standard. The validation by the Science Based Targets initiative in October 2023 confirmed that the P\u00f6ppelmann Group's targets are in line with the 1.5 degree target of the Paris Climate Conference.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source:\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.poeppelmann.com\/de\/famac\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">P\u00f6ppelmann FAMAC<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"P\u00f6ppelmann FAMAC offers its customers a greenhouse gas emissions balance to optimise their packaging.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":90212,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"__cvm_playback_settings":[],"__cvm_video_id":"","rank_math_description":"P\u00f6ppelmann FAMAC bietet seinen Kunden  zur Optimierung von Verpackungen eine Bilanzierung der Treibhausgas-Emissionen an.","rank_math_focus_keyword":"treibhausgas,bilanzierung,p\u00f6ppelmann","rank_math_title":"","csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[54,31,40,58739],"class_list":{"0":"post-90211","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-service","8":"tag-kunststoff-und-verbunde","9":"tag-nachhaltigkeit-und-green-packaging","10":"tag-pharma-kosmetik-chemie","11":"tag-poeppelmann","12":"cs-entry","13":"cs-video-wrap"},"acf":[],"vimeo_video":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/90211","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=90211"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/90211\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/90212"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=90211"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=90211"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=90211"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
