1Calculated using industry leading LCA software analysis following the guidelines of ISO 14040 in determining and documenting the scope, assumptions, consistent boundary conditions and data sources. Calculations were conducted per piece and compared total quantity of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) emitted throughout the life cycle, reported in kilograms of CO2 equivalent (CO2e), between a virgin plastic bottle and a bottle with 50% PCR content, with the global warming potential (GWP) calculated over a 100-year timeframe. This calculation has not been verified by an independent third-party.
2Based on a projected annual reduction of approximately 1,600 metric tons CO2e, for all projected sales of the 1oz, 2oz, 4oz, and Super Deal sizes produced over the period from June 2024 to June 2025 and calculated using the EPA Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies Calculator available at https://www.epa.gov/energy/greenhouse-gas-equivalencies-calculator. This calculation has not been verified by an independent third-party.
