Our Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) calculation for environmentally friendly purchasing decisions
Steel is our business. Sustainability is our responsibility!
Climate and environmental protection is one of the greatest challenges of our time, and has a major impact on our business activities – now and in the future. Our customers are also increasingly making environmentally friendly purchasing decisions in order to reduce CO2 emissions and increase the sustainability of their products and services. However, in order to build sustainable and transparent supply chains, it is important to know what CO2 emissions the individual products cause.
The product carbon footprint is a reliable measure for this. With our PCF calculation, we can determine the individual PCF for almost any of our products.
It's to your advantage!
Advantages of our PCF calculation
Fast and precise calculation of CO2 emissions for almost all the steel products on offer
Full consideration of the supply chain including all transport routes and means of transport
Transparent information on the carbon footprint of purchased goods and services with a PCF declaration issued
Reliable calculation method, validated by TÜV SÜD in accordance with ISO 14067 and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol
Indispensable purchasing criterion for developing your decarbonisation strategy
We are happy to help you with your decarbonisation.
Our sales team offers individual advice and works with you to find further starting points for your decarbonisation strategy.
How we calculate the PCF
You can count on it!
The product carbon footprint (PCF) records all of a product's CO2 emissions along the entire supply chain – from raw material extraction and production to processing, storage and transport to the customer's factory gate (cradle to customer entry gate). All greenhouse gases are included and converted into CO2 equivalents (CO2e).
Using the PCF tool we have developed, we can calculate these CO2 emissions for almost all of our products. This applies to both reduced-CO2 and conventionally produced steel products from the comprehensive product range of Salzgitter Mannesmann Stahlservice.
Our PCF declaration: simple, transparent and validated
When ordering the products you want, you can also request a PCF declaration for a flat-rate service fee. We will provide you with the PCF declaration along with the delivery documents in a digital format. In addition to the PCF value, it contains key information about the order.
