REDUCING THE CARBON FOOTPRINT, A KEY CHALLENGE

Carbon neutrality is based on the balance between CO2 emissions and absorption. To achieve it by 2050, in France, it is imperative to drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions throughout the life cycle of a product and to opt for innovative and more sustainable solutions.

Regardless of the material used in the end, companies must rethink their products, from design to end of life and recovery, in order to actively contribute to this ecological transition.

A REGULATORY FRAMEWORK IN FULL EVOLUTION

Reducing the carbon footprint is part of global commitments, through regulations such as the Paris Agreement or the European Green Deal. Manufacturers must also adapt to increasing regulatory requirements. Knauf Industries can support you by developing compliant solutions that meet your challenges under the PPWR regulation and the Anti-Waste for a Circular Economy (AGEC) law and your expectations.

PROFIM, A MODEL OF RESPONSIBLE ECO-DESIGN

Profim, a Flokk brand, the European leader in office furniture in Poland, is collaborating with Knauf Industries to develop the furniture of tomorrow.

The Revo range, which uses enriched recycled polypropylene (RELOOPP ®) instead of traditional plywood, is a great example of this. Its weight is reduced by 40%, thanks to the use of a material that has already had a second life and has been remodeled without any additives.

Lighter weight by 40%, thus reducing the carbon footprint by 13% during production and by 40% during transport. The range, named Revo, embodies this commitment with a circular design.
