The calculation of CO2 emissions emitted during box production is based on the company’s specific carbon footprint, which ClimatePartner calculated for each of Cartondruck’s international locations. Using this as the basis, emissions calculators were designed that are tailored to the data of each respective location and are directly implemented into order calculation software. This integration into the management information system (MIS) makes it possible for Cartondruck to not only name the price on each folding box, but also to automatically assess the carbon footprint produced. Customers can decide for each order on whether the carbon emission volume yielded should be offset by supporting certified climate protection projects in order to produce climate neutral folding boxes
