Materials
The materials we use play a crucial role in determining the overall environmental impact of the products we produce, accounting for up to 60% of a product’s total footprint.
By making informed material choices, businesses can significantly reduce emissions, resource depletion, and waste, creating more sustainable products. A deeper understanding of material impact, recyclability, and sourcing alternatives enables companies to lower their footprint, improve efficiency, and align with evolving sustainability regulations and consumer expectations.
