Abena cares for the environment. We are proud of our green conscience, and we help our customers take responsibility for the environment by doing so as well. Every day, we work hard to continue developing and finding new and improved sustainable product solutions. Many of our products are eco-labelled with for instance the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, the EU Ecolabel, Asthma-Allergy Denmark and certifications from FSC/PEFC. As a company, Abena is ISO 9001/14001- and ISO 50001-certified.

We continually work on reducing CO2 emission within our products by rethinking our materials, for instance with our award-winning C40-cup – read more about our C40-cup here. At the same time, we want to give our products the cleanest possible beginning of their lifecycle by integrating renewable energy sources into our production of health care solutions.

ASC – Abena Sustainability Calculator

Among Abena’s other sustainable initiatives, we can provide you and your business with material comparisons through our ASC – Abena Sustainability Calculator. ASC – which calculates our products’ environmental impact within 16 categories, including CO2 ,water scarcity, water pollution and primary energy-use, amongst others.

ASC calculation methods and modeling are based on ISO standard 14040/44 and on the GaBi modelling principles. The impact categories are based on EF 2.0 methods from the Product Environmental Footprint Guide of the European Commission (Product Environmental Footprint Category Rules Guidance, Version 6.3 from May 2018). The climate change impact category is based on the standard emission factors from the IPCC AR5 report as this reflects the common international consensus.
