Life Cycle Impact Assessment
Cradle-to-grave life cycle impact assessment results are shown for both TRACI 2.0 and CML characterization
factors. These results are relative expressions and do not predict impacts on category endpoints such as
Human Health or Ecosystem Quality, the exceeding of thresholds, safety margins, or risks.
With respect to global warming potential, no credit was given for the sequestration of biogenic carbon during
the growth of plants used in plant-derived packaging materials. Any carbon temporarily sequestered during the
use of bio-based materials is assumed to be re-released to the atmosphere upon their decomposition. Since
the lifetime of plant-derived packaging materials is shorter than the 100 year time horizon of this impact
category (GWP 100), biogenic carbon was excluded from the global warming potential calculations.
