 Calculating carbon footprints at uvex safety
============================================

 ### What do we mean by carbon footprints?

A carbon footprint is measured through an **emissions calculation**. This determines the total amount of greenhouse gas emissions (including carbon dioxide, or CO2) associated with resource consumption, manufacturing processes, transport or energy consumption, for example.

 ### How and why do we calculate the carbon footprint of our products?

All the processes involved in the life of a product are included in the calculation of its carbon footprint. In our calculations, we differentiate between the cradle-to-customer and the cradle-to-grave principles. Our aim is to use this data to **identify potential for savings** (for example through hotspot analysis) and to communicate our sustainability performance both internally and externally. The calculation may also be used as a basis for future design and product development processes.

 ### What measurement methods do we use to calculate a product’s carbon footprint?

uvex calculates the carbon footprint of its products using the methodology outlined in the international standard **ISO 14067**. We calculate carbon footprints using SimaPro software and the ecoinvent database’s cut-off system model, information we collect from our suppliers and datasets based on our own measurements. The calculation method corresponds in summary: IPCC 2021 GWP 100a (based on ISO 14067) SimaPro 9.4.02 Database ecoinvent 3.8. Scope: cradle to customer. The CO2 values stated apply to the calculation period and may be subject to permanent changes.
