Das Greif Green Tool
Sustainability expectations are rising from customers, regulators, and investors alike. Packaging is a visible, reportable part of your Scope 3 emissions, and the pressure to provide credible data is growing fast.
The Greif Green Tool gives you the environmental insights you need to make confident packaging decisions, meet your reporting obligations, and demonstrate measurable progress.
What is the Green Tool?
The Greif Green Tool is an independent, ISO-aligned life cycle assessment (LCA) calculator that evaluates the environmental impact of Greif’s industrial packaging products — from raw material extraction through to end of life.
Developed in partnership with the IFEU Institute, one of the world’s leading independent LCA research organizations, the Greif Green Tool has been helping customers reduce their packaging footprint since 2010.
