LCA: Vergelijking tussen papieren- en kunststofverpakkingen

26 juni 2015

BillerudKorsnäs commissioned IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute to perform an attributional LCA on four products which are based on paper produced by BillerudKorsnäs. The LCA was performed on regard to the four environmental key performance indicators (KPIs): global warming potential, acidification potential, eutrophication potential and photochemical ozone creation potential.
The main conclusion is that material production is in general the most important factor, having a significant impact to all KPIs, both for the plastic and paper products. Plastic material production is, generally, more dominating than the Kraft paper production, on the total life cycle of the product.
