The paper
Burano is the range of high quality tinted and smooth papers suitable for applications in papermaking, print and creativity. One of Favini’s historical and best-loved papers, it is available in nine grammages and no less than thirty-five colours. Favini has submitted Burano to a Co2 emissions calculation, demonstrating the company’s attention to the environment and for the identification of improvement actions aimed at reducing consumption.
Methodology and boundaries of the system
The calculation of the CO2 emissions of the tinted Burano product was carried out by ClimatePartner according to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard (GHG Protocol).
The method used to calculate the Product Carbon Footprint was Cradle to consumer plus end of life, considering all stages of the product life cycle controllable by the producer. These phases include the material acquisition and pre-processing, packaging, production and delivery of the product to the customer. For the end of life, the disposal and packaging phases are also taken into account.
The calculation was mainly based on primary data; where this was not available, secondary data from recognised sources was used. In addition, emissions that are difficult to attribute directly to the product but are necessary to produce it, such as employee travel to and from work and business trips, were also included in the calculation.
The emissions
Emissions data for Burano production was sorted according to life cycle stages and represented in two ways: in table format and by a pie chart. The latter allows one to quickly see how the raw material supply and production phases affect the carbon footprint.
Actions for Reduction
The Carbon footprint is the parameter that makes it possible to determine the environmental impacts that anthropogenic activities have on climate change and therefore on global warming. The figure is derived from the sum of greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere caused by the product and allows the organisation to set targets and take action to reduce existing emissions and avoidable emissions.
Avoidable emissions can be reduced by taking action at the product design stage; by implementing better plant technologies that enable energy and environmental efficiency; by using potentially recyclable materials, and by sourcing raw materials and packaging locally. Residual greenhouse gas emissions, i.e. those remaining after the implementation of reduction actions, can be offset through climate protection projects.
What is Burano
The point where colour and quality meet has a name: Burano: our range of smooth, mass-dyed coloured papers, available in a selection of grammages and sizes.
Our brand takes its name from an island nearby to Venice, famous worldwide for its coloured houses. The range offers 35 striking colours, from pastels, to strong brights through to rich dark shades. The Black, in particular, is exceptional.
It’s thought to be the purest and richest available, ideal for high-quality, luxury projects and communication. Completely free of carbon black, it’s also perfect for foil blocking. Burano is FSC™FSC™ C001810 certified.
