Support climate action with PLEXIGLAS® semi-finished products

Reducing climate-damaging emissions is the order of the day. As the manufacturer of PLEXIGLAS® semi-finished products, we at POLYVANTIS GmbH are working to achieve just that. But reducing emissions is a long and winding road for a manufacturer like us.

That is why, in addition to our efforts in our own value-creation chain, we have purchased carbon credits for an allotment of our PLEXIGLAS® products. By doing so, we are helping to finance a certified climate project. By buying these specially labeled PLEXIGLAS® sheets, blocks, tubes and rods, our customers will be making a meaningful contribution to climate action with us.

 

Supporting climate action with carbon credits

Supporting climate projects is an important transitional tool that bridges the gap until new low-carbon technologies or energy sources are developed. By purchasing carbon credits, companies can play an important role in mobilizing funds for the implementation of additional climate action measures. This voluntary contribution to climate action is made in supplement to a company’s own efforts to lower CO2 emissions and is not factored into their calculated carbon footprint. We at POLYVANTIS are also choosing to follow this path.

Our partner

As the manufacturer of PLEXIGLAS® semi-finished products, we are doing our bit to support climate action in partnership with a renowned climate action partner: First Climate.


Carbon footprint of PLEXIGLAS® acrylic glass

The first step in supporting climate action is a life cycle assessment (LCA) that we created to assess the environmental impacts of producing PLEXIGLAS® solid sheets. This forms the basis for calculating the level of our climate action support, which funds a certified climate project via our partner First Climate.

Climate protection project: production of renewable energy

Our support for climate action is helping to finance a wind power project in southeast Europe. The renewable energy generated there helps replace the energy produced by burning fossil fuels in conventional power stations. Moreover, the project improves the air quality and creates jobs and income opportunities in the project region, which then also strengthens the local economy in a sustainable way.

Certified climate protection project:

Gold Standard® and TÜV certified

The chosen project is Gold Standard certified. Developed together with WWF, this is the highest quality standard for verifying climate projects. The project is audited by an independent body (TÜV NORD). This ensures compliance with the defined assessment criteria and verifies that the project creates actual added value for the environment.

Type of energy: Renewable energy from wind power generated in a wind farm.
Project standard: The Gold Standard® is the highest-quality project standard.
