19 Jul 2022 --- Non profit industry organization the European Federation of Corrugated Board Manufacturers (FEFCO) is reporting that the CO2 footprint for corrugated board is now 491 kg CO2 equivalent (e/t), showing significant improvement compared to the 538 kg CO2e/t produced in its 2018 assessment. This result reflects the continuous efforts made by the European corrugated industry and its paper suppliers to reduce their environmental impact. The data for the production of paper and board and conversion into corrugated boxes were sourced from the 2021 European Database for Corrugated Board Life Cycle Studies, organized by FEFCO and CCB (Cepi ContainerBoard).
