A Ecochain Case Study
Theo Pouw Groep, a supplier of building materials to the Dutch construction industry, faced the challenge of remaining competitive in a sector where public tenders are often won based on a low Environmental Cost Indicator (MKI). To win these tenders, they needed to produce high-value products with low CO2 emissions but found it difficult to stay on top of their changing environmental data using traditional reports.
Ecochain's Environmental Specialists helped map the company's processes and generate material and energy flows using their Environmental Intelligence Platform. This solution provided a clear picture of their energy use and emissions, allowing them to find hotspots and improve their product portfolio. Ecochain helped Theo Pouw Groep gain a competitive advantage by incrementally improving product sustainability, reducing costs, and increasing process efficiency.
