Compreender a pegada de carbono<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

O potencial de aquecimento global (PAG), vulgarmente conhecido como \u2018pegada de carbono\u2019, mede o potencial impacto do aquecimento global de um processo em equivalentes de CO2 de gases com efeito de estufa entre um ponto inicial e um ponto final definidos. Diferentes emiss\u00f5es podem ter um impacto menor ou maior no aquecimento global, pelo que, por conveni\u00eancia, s\u00e3o medidas e depois convertidas em \u2018equivalentes de CO2\u2019 de gases com efeito de estufa. Por exemplo, uma tonelada de metano tem um impacte no aquecimento global equivalente a vinte e cinco toneladas de di\u00f3xido de carbono.<\/p>

No caso da NatureFlex\u2122, foi efectuada uma Avalia\u00e7\u00e3o do Ciclo de Vida (ACV) completa, do \u2018Ber\u00e7o ao Port\u00e3o\u2019. Isto permitiu-nos medir e compreender os impactos de todas as nossas mat\u00e9rias-primas, ao longo de todo o nosso processo de fabrico at\u00e9 que a bobina de filme cortada esteja pronta a sair das nossas instala\u00e7\u00f5es. As LCAs da Futamura foram todas efectuadas pela Sphera (anteriormente Thinkstep), ou ERM, utilizando o software GaBi.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tForam introduzidas melhorias significativas nas mat\u00e9rias-primas que utilizamos e no nosso processo de fabrico, desde que come\u00e7\u00e1mos a monitorizar o nosso processo utilizando a ACV em 2006. A ACV mais recente foi efectuada em 2025 e mostra que a pegada de carbono foi reduzida em quase 50% desde 2007. Os dados hist\u00f3ricos mostraram que j\u00e1 em 2006 a pegada de carbono tinha sido reduzida em 57% desde a d\u00e9cada de 1990. Olhando para o futuro, estamos a prever uma redu\u00e7\u00e3o adicional de aproximadamente 10% at\u00e9 2027\/28, com base em investimentos futuros no nosso processo.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\u00c9 cada vez mais comum as empresas procurarem comparar as pegadas de carbono de diferentes materiais, no entanto, \u00e9 necess\u00e1rio ter muito cuidado para garantir que as compara\u00e7\u00f5es s\u00e3o efectuadas apenas entre materiais com propriedades funcionais semelhantes, utilizando as mesmas metodologias e pressupostos de ACV, com os mesmos pontos de partida e de chegada.<\/p>

O gr\u00e1fico apresentado abaixo compara a pegada de carbono (kg CO2eq \/ kg) de tr\u00eas filmes pl\u00e1sticos convencionais; poli\u00e9ster (PET), polipropileno (BOPP) e poliamida (PA6) \u2013 juntamente com a pegada de carbono atual do filme lacado NatureFlex\u2122 NVS. Inclui tamb\u00e9m uma pegada de carbono projetada para o NatureFlex\u2122 lacado em 2027\/28, com base em melhorias planeadas no nosso processo de fabrico.<\/p>

NatureFlex\u2122 \u00e9 semelhante ao polipropileno, mas em termos de densidade, propriedades mec\u00e2nicas, capacidade de impress\u00e3o e resist\u00eancia ao calor, o poli\u00e9ster \u00e9 a pel\u00edcula comparativa mais pr\u00f3xima. NatureFlex\u2122 \u00e9 tamb\u00e9m uma boa alternativa \u00e0 pel\u00edcula de poliamida, uma vez que NatureFlex\u2122 tem uma excelente barreira ao oxig\u00e9nio e uma rigidez semelhante.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Um investimento chave que impulsiona a nossa futura redu\u00e7\u00e3o da pegada de carbono \u00e9 a instala\u00e7\u00e3o de um processo de \u00e1cido sulf\u00farico h\u00famido (WSA) nas nossas instala\u00e7\u00f5es no Reino Unido. Este processo foi apoiado por um subs\u00eddio do Fundo de Transforma\u00e7\u00e3o de Energia Industrial (IETF) que foi atribu\u00eddo \u00e0 Futamura pelo Governo do Reino Unido em 2025. O processo WSA reduzir\u00e1 significativamente as nossas emiss\u00f5es \u00e0 base de enxofre e gerar\u00e1 energia substancial para utiliza\u00e7\u00e3o no local, reduzindo assim a nossa depend\u00eancia do g\u00e1s natural e diminuindo a nossa pegada de carbono.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Compreender as categorias de impacto<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Embora o termo \u2018pegada de carbono\u2019 seja agora conhecido por quase todos n\u00f3s, \u00e9 apenas um de v\u00e1rios indicadores ambientais chave que podem ser medidos atrav\u00e9s da An\u00e1lise do Ciclo de Vida (ACV). N\u00e3o \u00e9 poss\u00edvel comparar todos os impactos ambientais desde a nossa primeira ACV devido ao facto de alguns dos resultados terem mudado significativamente em consequ\u00eancia de atualiza\u00e7\u00f5es nas bases de dados. O gr\u00e1fico abaixo ilustra as melhorias projetadas em m\u00faltiplas categorias de impacto para o nosso NatureFlex\u2122 envernizado, entre agora e 2027\/28, impulsionadas por melhorias cont\u00ednuas nos processos.<\/p>

Estamos especificamente empenhados em reduzir o nosso consumo de \u00e1gua e j\u00e1 realiz\u00e1mos melhorias significativas, como a moderniza\u00e7\u00e3o da nossa esta\u00e7\u00e3o de tratamento de \u00e1gua em 2019. Isto contribuiu para uma redu\u00e7\u00e3o da procura de \u00e1gua em todo o local de cerca de 20% (\u2248500 m3\/dia).<\/p>

Al\u00e9m disso, a Futamura obt\u00e9m polpa de madeira de \u00e1rvores de eucalipto, que n\u00e3o requerem irriga\u00e7\u00e3o adicional e a utiliza\u00e7\u00e3o de herbicidas, insecticidas e fertilizantes \u00e9 baixa para minimizar os impactos ambientais. Adicionalmente, as opera\u00e7\u00f5es da Futamura no Reino Unido e nos EUA possuem a certifica\u00e7\u00e3o da cadeia de cust\u00f3dia FSC\u2122 (Licen\u00e7a N.\u00ba C119399) e PEFC (Licen\u00e7a N.\u00ba PEFC\/16-33-1610) para garantir que a nossa polpa de madeira apoia uma silvicultura sustent\u00e1vel e respons\u00e1vel.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
