Profile

HEINZ-GLAS GmbH & Co. KGaA is a leading manufacturer of glass flacons and jars for the perfume and cosmetics industries. HEINZ-GLAS relies on a smart IT tool specifically developed in-house to systematically analyse emissions along its products’ value chain.

Business Challenge

The complex production processes and extensive data volume added to the challenge of ensuring the credibility of its carbon footprint calculations for precisely specified individual products and compliance with international standards.

Our Solutions

The ISO 14067 standard served as a guideline for a systematic approach to facilitate the analysis of the data and methods used by HEINZ-GLAS’s carbon footprint calculation model in accordance with the EN ISO 14064-3 standard.

Business Benefits

The validation verified the transparency and reproducibility of HEINZ-GLAS’s carbon footprint model, with TÜV SÜD being one of the first accredited bodies to successfully validate this systematic approach.

We are setting trends in the quality of premium flacons, but also in their sustainability, as is demonstrated by our product carbon footprint calculation model. Validation by TÜV SÜD allows us to prove this to our customers, strengthening their trust in our results.
