Meeting those commitments can be challenging, but designing next-generation polymer products with product carbon footprint (PCF) at the forefront of your decision-making process can help. In this webinar, we will demystify carbon footprint, providing data and insight to support you in making informed choices that can help reduce the carbon footprint of your plastics parts.<\/p>\n<p>Our expert will describe the different carbon footprint levels, explain how they can be calculated, and dive into the impact of material selection. At the conclusion, you\u2019ll have a better understanding of carbon footprint and materials that can help you achieve lower carbon emission goals. <\/p>\n<p>Our presenters for this free webinar are Dr. Jan S\u00fcltemeyer, Global Innovation and Sustainability Manager, and Dr. Liang Xu, Senior Technology Manager at Avient. <\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/app.livestorm.co\/ul-5\/avient-product-carbon-footprint-explained\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Watch the Webinar Recording<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/ulprospector.ul.com\/media\/2023\/05\/20230517-PCF-UL-Webinar-slides.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download the Slides<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.avient.com\/contact-0?utm_source=UL-webinar&#038;utm_medium=referral&#038;utm_campaign=2023-SEMPCFWebinarUL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Contact Us \/ Ask a Question<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Presented by Avient Recorded on May 17, 2023 To address carbon emission concerns, companies and organizations around the globe are making commitments to reduce greenhouse gases and reach net zero.
