The ultra-low PCF of these reSound TPEs measures
the cradle-to-gate stage of the product life cycle.
The PCF value of these
TPEs may be used as an input to determine the
total GHG emissions generated by a product over
its entire life cycle.
reSound ultra-low carbon footprint TPEs are
available globally, and each PCF is location specific
to more accurately support carbon neutrality efforts.
