WITH LEVEL|BLUE®, YOU REDUCE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT
LEVEL|BLUE® are Lhoist's certified products at the beginning of its transformation to decarbonized production.
With LEVEL|BLUE®, customers can already impact their corporate scope 3 emissions today. Lhoist achieves this CO2 mitigation through a variety of projects to avoid and reduce emissions first and offset the remaining emissions according to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.
We didn't wait; we took action. To reduce your carbon footprint.
We calculate our carbon footprint based on the internationally established Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG). The calculation therefore includes all emissions from our facilities. We work alongside an external partner in order to obtain precise and reliable data and provide our support to certified climate protection projects only.
1. AVOID.
- Wherever possible, we avoid CO2 production. For example, by:
- Switching our electricity supply to renewable energy;
- Reducing input quantities and transportation thanks to increased product efficiency (e.g. Sorbacal® SP);
- Substituting primary raw materials with recycled products (e.g. converter lime).
2. REDUCE.
- Wherever CO2 production cannot be avoided, we reduce it. For example, by:
- Increased use of secondary fuels (e.g. biomass);
- Optimization of our kilns;
- Increased efficiency of transportation routes.
3. OFFSET.
- The remainder of emissions that cannot be avoided nor reduced today, we offset by high quality carbon credits.
- These emissions are calculated in line with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG). By investing in climate protection projects, we offset this carbon footprint for you alongside our partners natureOffice and South Pole.
