Carbon Footprint of Plastic Bottle: 0.07 kg CO₂e per Unit

The carbon footprint of Plastic Bottle is calculated using a comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach, considering all stages from raw material extraction to final delivery. The carbon footprint of Plastic Bottle materials accounts for approximately 2% of total emissions. This includes the extraction, processing, and manufacturing of raw materials such as PET resin derived from petroleum, formed through injection molding or blow molding processes.. Energy consumption during production contributes 0% to the total carbon footprint. This includes electricity used in manufacturing processes, with emissions varying based on the energy grid of the production location. Transportation emissions represent 98% of the total footprint, covering the movement of materials and finished products from production facilities to end users. The distance and transport mode significantly impact these emissions. The total carbon footprint of Plastic Bottle is approximately 0.07 kg CO₂e per unit. Reducing emissions can be achieved through sustainable material sourcing, renewable energy use in production, and optimizing logistics for shorter transport distances. Our calculation methodology uses emission factors from DEFRA 2023, Agribalyse v3.1.1, and PlasticsEurope Eco-profiles, ensuring accuracy and transparency in our assessments.
