Brenntag Offers Comprehensive Product Carbon Foortprint Data to Promote GHG Emissions’ Transparency
Brenntag has started to provide comprehensive product carbon footprint data (PCF) to customers.
This unique service is part of Brenntag’s sustainability strategy to promote and enhance transparency about greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to drive reductions across the entire supply chain.
Christian Kohlpaintner, CEO of Brenntag SE said, “More and more of our almost 190,000 customers worldwide are taking stronger environmentally conscious purchasing decisions. Brenntag cares and takes on responsibility for all ESG aspects, actively fostering the required changes.”
Brenntag calculates the PCF data according to the different stages of the supply chain. The first part represents Brenntag’s upstream Scope 3 emissions, from the extraction of resources through the manufacturing of the product up to the plant gate of our suppliers. The share of Brenntag’s own emissions (Scope 1 and 2), is subsequently added.
