The challenge
Archroma is facing increasing demands from its customers to report on the carbon footprint of its products.
The solution
Arcadis has developed a methodology for calculating the carbon footprint of Archroma’s product portfolio.
The impact
Archroma has a carbon footprint methodology aligned with TfS and GHG Protocol to meet customer requirements and can define its climate strategy more precisely.
The challenge
Archroma, a global supplier of specialty chemicals used in high-quality textiles, paper, packaging, and coatings, sought expertise and support to better calculate and report the greenhouse gas emissions of the company (Corporate Carbon Footprint - CCF) and its products (Product Carbon Footprint - PCF) to support its climate strategy.
The solution
The Product Sustainability team at Arcadis supported Archroma in four key domains.
First, we developed a methodology and tool to calculate the carbon footprint of Archroma’s products. This development was based on a pilot of about ten products, following the guidelines of Together for Sustainability (TfS) and the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol.
Next, we co-developed a strategy to deploy carbon footprint calculations across Archroma’s entire product portfolio.
