| 100% renewable energy for nylon film production  DOMO Film Solutions has announced that it will start sourcing 100% renewable energy for the production of its nylon film from January 2020. The move reflects DOMO's continuous commitment to providing low-carbon nylon film. "Thanks to this reduction in carbon footprint, NYLEEN has made another step forward towards offering industry a sustainable nylon film solution as we continue to improve our production processes. This family of nylon films has a proven low carbon footprint and this use of renewable energy will help to lower that even further", says Attilio Annoni, Managing Director at DOMO Film Solutions.DOMO Film Solutions has already achieved significant improvements in its precise carbon footprint assessment. In 2018, the company accurately measured the amount of CO₂ emitted by 1 ton of its nylon film production. This assessment was implemented by DOMO's partner Quantis which performed a detailed and complete Life Cycle Assessment. It found NYLEEN to have a significantly lower carbon footprint when compared to standard nylon film. In addition, DOMO Film Solutions benchmarked its nylon film's CO₂ emissions with standard production, whether done within or outside the European Union. The results showed that DOMO emits up to 28% less CO₂ than standard production when producing nylon film. This performance is based on three key traits distinguishing DOMO Film Solutions: upstream integration, green energy-mix and logistic optimization. write your comments about the article :: © 2019 Construction News :: home page |
