New PCF calculator enables informed assessment of greenhouse gases for plastic profiles and calculation of product carbon footprint (PCF) 

Lohfelden, 2 September 2025 

Technoform Kunststoffprofile GmbH, a specialist in the extrusion of thermoplastics, has launched a product carbon footprint (PCF) calculator. This new tool can be used to calculate the greenhouse gas emissions of specific plastic profiles. The company is now better positioned to deal with increasing regulatory requirements such as the EU-wide CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) – and can provide customers with sound information for the decarbonisation of their products. The calculator also helps the company to fulfil its own and its customers’ sustainability efforts, as it enables alternative, more resource-efficient materials to be used.
