The industry standard for Product Carbon Footprints

About this presentation

In this presentation I will talk in depth about Together for Sustainability’s Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) guideline. I will give an introduction to PCF’s what they are; why they are needed and which incoming regulations they will make it easier to comply with before moving on to TfS itself. In this section I will give an introduction to TfS and its critical mass of member organisations, I attempt to convey why these adopters mean this guideline will likely become to industry standard for PCFs in years to come. Finally, I will finish with some specifics about the guideline and give an introduction to the opensource ‘SiGreen’ software (developed by Siemens) which will help deliver inform, what is becoming an essential characteristic of a product’s performance.

Speaking on behalf of ‘Together for Sustainability’ is TfS committee member  – Steven Hughes, EMEA Sustainability Manager within Azelis
