Product Environmental Footprint (PEF)

The purpose of the PEF method is to use uniform methods to measure the environmental footprint of products in order to compare and communicate the environmental information of different products. This provides consumers with reliable information when purchasing products that are produced in a resource-conserving manner.
The "Product Environmental Footprint (PEF)" represents the next level of European environmental policy and serves to communicate essential environmental parameters in B2B and B2C. As part of the European Commission's "Single Market for Green Products" initiative, the PEF is becoming increasingly important in determining and evaluating information on the environmental performance of products and organisations.
The Product Environmental Footprint is relevant for product manufacturers in all industries who wish to analyse and quantify the environmental impacts of their products in accordance with current policy requirements. Companies can use the PEF to communicate the environmental profiles of their products and compare them with those of other companies. A "PEF study" prepared by Kiwa prepares companies for current and future requirements of European environmental policy and understands the effects on their own company.
Process steps
"PEF studies" are carried out by our experts according to current requirements. Together with our experts, the target and the scope of the study are defined and then the life cycle analysis of your product begins. Once the results have been evaluated, we provide you with advice on how to prepare the data for B2B or B2C communication.
Corporate Carbon Footprint
The Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF) is a significant indicator used in sustainability reporting and helps with complying to directives like the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Taking into account both direct and indirect emissions, it is calculated according to the Green House Gas Protocol and ISO 14064. By calculating and understanding your CCF, you can identify cost-effective CO2 reduction opportunities and manage greenhouse gas risks effectively.
Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)
As in politics and society, sustainability efforts are also becoming increasingly important in the business world. Companies face the challenge of understanding the environmental impacts of their products in order to communicate them effectively. Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are a powerful tool for this purpose.
Life cycle assessment (LCA)
A Life Cycle Assessment is used to quantify the environmental impacts of processes, products, services or organisations, usually as a basis for other sustainability applications such as Environmental Product Declarations, Product Environmental Footprints and CO2 footprints.
CO2 - Footprint / Certification CO2-neutral
The CO2 Footprint, also known as the Carbon Footprint, records the total CO2 emissions that occur directly or indirectly over the life cycle of a product system.
