What is a Product Carbon Footprint (PCF)?

A Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) measures the total carbon emissions generated throughout a product’s lifecycle, from raw material extraction to production, transportation, use, and disposal. Understanding a product's carbon footprint allows companies to identify emission hotspots and develop strategies for reduction. PCF calculations are essential for businesses aiming to meet sustainability goals, comply with regulations, and improve supply chain transparency.
