LBST supported a German furniture manufacturer in developing a Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF) and Product Carbon Footprints (PCF) for three furniture products up to their verification by an independent auditing organisation.

The CCF was calculated in accordance with ISO 14064-1 with categorisation of emissions to Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 in accordance with the GHG Protocol

The PCF of furniture products from new production and refurbishing was calculated according to ISO 14067 and Product Category Rules (PCR) for Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) of furniture.  Modelling for the PCF was carried out in the software openLCA.

All reports were verified by the auditing organisation before the target date set by the client.
