Industrilas recognises the importance of sustainable actions throughout the company. Its vision is to be the key partner for a sustainable tomorrow, and by calculating and supplying emission data to customers, Industrilas can assist them in reaching their sustainability goals, says the company's sustainability strategist, Martin Samuelsson.
The scope of Industrilas emission data is based on a "Cradle-to-Gate" approach, which account for emissions from the extraction of raw materials up to the point the products leave its manufacturing facility.
Presently, the calculations and Life Cycle Assessments are available for products produced at the company's largest manufacturing site in Sweden. In the future Industrilas will expand the data to include all of its manufactured products, at all of its sites.
The data used for calculations is derived from the Greenhouse Gas Protocol standard or ISO 14064. Our ERP system includes an add-on that allows Industrilas to perform life cycle assessments for individual products.
"We are excited and proud of this significant step in our journey," says Martin Samuelsson. "Moving on, the data and calculations will be used in a variety of ways. They will not only benefit our customers' sustainability efforts, they will also be a baseline for how Industrilas can streamline and improve our manufacturing from this point onwards. Data is the key to unlock the future."
