NextBag™ wins in sustainability. LCA (Life Cycle Assessment)

The results of the LCA study showed that the FFS NextBag™ tube is more sustainable from an environmental point of view compared to the standard FFS version produced entirely with virgin raw material.

Reducing the amount of virgin polymers can yield environmental benefits of 26% on average, with peaks in impact reduction of about 40% in the categories “Depletion of water resources” and “Depletion of fossil resources”.

In particular, regarding the carbon footprint (Climate Change category), the NextBag™ version presents an impact reduction of about 28%, with an absolute value of 2.40 kg CO2 eq compared to 3.34 kg CO2 eq emitted by the standard version per kg of product.

In extreme synthesis, if every 1,000 t of FFS standard product with virgin polymers produces 3,340 t of CO2 eq., the same quantity of FFS with the NextBag™ process produces 2,400 t of CO2 eq. A difference of 940 t fewer emissions with FFS NextBag™ packaging.
