Product Carbon Footprint (PCF)
Product Carbon Footprint (PCF)
The Product Carbon Footprint methodology defines a standardized approach to measure the environmental impact of products throughout their life cycle, promoting comparability and continuous improvement.
This system must include information gathering (Due Diligence) on the origin of the products, risk assessment, and the adoption of measures to avoid or minimize the risk that the products come from illegally deforested areas. The applicability of the Regulation depends on several factors, such as the country of origin of the product, the type of production and forest management practices. This directive is an extension and update of the previous directive, the EU Timber Regulation (EUTR), and aims to increase the transparency and quality of sustainability information that companies must provide. The objectives of the EUDR are to reduce deforestation linked to EU consumption, promote sustainable production and consumption, protect biodiversity and ecosystem services, improve transparency and accountability, and contribute to sustainable development goals.
Who is affected?
- Companies that market products with ecolabels or environmental claims.
- Manufacturers seeking to optimize design and processes based on LCA results.
- Certification bodies that validate product footprint studies.
- Government agencies that incorporate PEF data into green public procurement policies.
