What is the amount of microplastics generated by the company?
CSRD
When disclosing the amounts of pollutants related to air, water, and soil, ensure you provide the following detailed information:
Microplastics Generated or Used:
Microplastics:
Disclose the amount of microplastics generated or used in your operations.
This may include:
Production of microplastics (e.g., in manufacturing processes such as plastic production or in certain types of coatings).
Use of products containing microplastics (e.g., personal care products, cleaning agents, paints).
Pollution caused by microplastics in wastewater, air, or during disposal.
Specific Amounts:
Provide the quantities of microplastics generated or used, measured in weight (e.g., kilograms or metric tons), and specify how the data was collected.
Contextual Information:
Ensure that you provide any relevant contextual information about how these emissions were quantified, including:
The measurement methods or estimation techniques used.
Whether direct measurements or modeling/estimates were applied.
Any regulatory compliance or mitigation strategies in place to reduce the pollutants and microplastics.
