Print shops, packaging manufacturers, bookbinders and envelope manufacturers can calculate the carbon footprint of their products using myclimate and label them with the myclimate Impact label "Engaged for Impact" for the non-European market or the myclimate label "CO₂ calculated – Carbon projects funded"
All CO₂-relevant activities and material flows in your company are documented on an annual basis. The web-based myclimate EcoCloud sustainability software supports efficient and structured data collection. The software allows you to calculate your carbon footprint and manage the performance of your resources and CO₂-relevant activities.
Besides the annual evaluation of all relevant data (carbon footprint), a benchmark report provides insights into your company’s position in the market. At the same time, it is proof of performance and serves as the basis for communication with end customers.
In addition to CO₂ calculation, you can support myclimate climate protection projects to the extent of your company’s own emissions. Within the programme, you can decide whether you wish to use the myclimate Impact label for the non-European market or whether you wish to extend the verification to the myclimate label "CO₂ calculated – Carbon projects funded", which complies with European legal standards, in particular the EmpCo.
There are two options for financing myclimate climate protection projects:
... as an order-specific contribution
to climate protection. You can award the myclimate label "CO₂ calculated – Carbon projects funded" on a per-order basis at the customer’s request. In this case, the emissions from the specific order – for example, a printed item – are calculated, and a contribution to climate protection of the corresponding amount is made via the selected myclimate climate protection project.
...as a CO₂-balanced print shop including a contribution
to climate protection from myclimate climate protection projects are supported on the basis of all unavoidable greenhouse gas emissions from the life cycles of your products. All printed materials you produce can therefore be awarded the myclimate label "CO₂ calculated – Carbon projects funded". You will also receive the label at company level, as well as a confirmation to showcase your commitment.
Position yourself as a responsible company and enable your customers to contribute to effective climate protection projects.
For more than ten years, dpsuisse (formely Viscom) has been working with myclimate to ensure active climate protection together with Swiss print shops and businesses in the graphics industry. More than 86 print shops now enable their customers to calculate product emissions and make a corresponding contribution to climate protection.
