comment on your net zero targets

Crystal Doors intends to achieve net zero for scopes 1 and 2 by 2030 (based on the market-based allocation method for scope 2). Overall, we aim to at least halve our total value chain emissions by 2030 and will aim for net zero across all scopes as soon after as possible.

comment on your near-term targets

*

Crystal Doors' near-term targets have been calculated with the Science Based Targets initiative's target setting tool and are aligned with the maximum ambition 1.5C global warming scenario. Our scope 1 target is based on going further by achieving net zero (90% absolute reduction) across scopes 1 and 2 by 2030, based on the market-based method for scope 2. We will continue to report our scope 2 location-based emissions as well, which provides an important incentive to continually improve our energy efficiency.

Comment on your energy consumption

Crystal Doors' location-based scope 2 emissions total 80tCO2e. We generate a substantial portion of our electricity from our 245kW rooftop solar panel system. The remaining power we draw from the grid is supplied via SSE's Next Generation tariff, which provides 100% renewable electricity traced to one of SSE's UK wind farms. Therefore our market-based scope 2 emissions are zero. Crystal Doors' heating is provided on-site via a biomass burner, fed entirely by MDF waste from the production process. Emissions from the biomass burner are estimated based on the weight of material burnt each year. We use the DEFRA GHG conversion factor for wood chips in the absence of a specific conversion factor for our material.

List any sources of emissions excluded:

*

We have excluded capital goods because it is currently difficult to calculate emissions from this source. We have also attempted to measure as many purchased goods and services as possible, using a mixture of the Normative carbon calculator estimator (using £ spent) and, where possible, more accurate conversion factors for core raw materials. In total, around 78% of total expenditure by £ spent is included in our calculations - the remainder are expense categories that are not measured by the Normative tool.

describe the calculation methodology and comment on accuracy:

*

We use a mixture of the Normative carbon calculator estimator (using £ spent) and, where possible, more accurate conversion factors based on real data. The two biggest raw materials are MDF and PVC vinyl foil, which represent approximately 60% of non-salary expenditure. For MDF we use a lifecycle analysis carbon figure provided by the manufacturer. For vinyl we currently use the DEFRA GHG conversion factor for PVC plastic. Fuel and energy-related activities, waste in operations, water (not reported above), employee commuting and end-of-life disposal are calculated using DEFRA GHG conversion factors. The remaining reported sources (other purchased goods and services and upstream/downstream transportation) are estimated using the Normative tool. We use a traffic light system to track our confidence levels in each category and attempt to improve data accuracy and methodology every year (with any methodology changes backdated to previous years where possible).

Actions and plans to reduce emissions *

Scope 1 Actions

own facilities

Yes

We are investigating our options for how to obtain more accurate consumption data from our biomass burner and site, which can then be used to inform decisions on how to reduce emissions from heating over time. The building already has an EPC A+ rating and will we aim to maintain this score into the future.

own vehicles

Yes

Crystal Doors has a small fleet of diesel vans that are fitted with vehicle monitoring technology to track fuel consumption. These will be replaced with electric models over the course of this decade as the market for electric vans matures. Our two company cars are already fully electric.

own processes

N/A

-

scope 2 actions

purchased electricity

Yes

Crystal Doors has taken radical action to improve energy efficiency and generate our own renewable energy in recent years. To date this includes a 245kW rooftop solar panel system, 100% LED lighting, energy efficient pump and compressor upgrades, power factor correction and our state-of-the-art Ecogate smart dust extraction system. We are currently rolling out a factory-wide sensor network that will provide live oversight of how energy is being used across our operation, which will help to inform further energy efficiency measures over the coming years. All electricity drawn from the grid is supplied via SSE's Next Generation Tariff, which is sourced from one of SSE's own UK wind farms.

supply chain related (upstream)

purchased good and services

*

Yes

We are targeting action on our core raw materials that make up the lion's share of our scope 3 emissions. This includes investigating measures to maximise the efficiency of MDF, adhesive and PVC vinyl consumption in the short-term, and exploring lower carbon alternatives to these materials over the long-term, as well as investing in R&D focused on developing lower carbon circular economy products. We are also exploring lower carbon forms of packaging.

capital goods

*

No

-

fuel and energy related activities

*

Yes

Crystal Doors' continual drive to improve energy efficiency and plans to transition to electric vehicles over time will help to bring down scope 2 fuel and energy-related emissions.

transportation and distribution (upstream)

*

No

No plans are in place to reduce this source of emissions at the current time.

waste in operation

*

Yes

All waste from the production process is either already fully recycled (in the case of PVC vinyl) or recovered for energy (in the case of MDF). No specific plans are in place to reduce other general waste at this time because it is a very small contributor to our scope 3 emissions.

business travel

*

Yes

All business travel is already taken either by electric car or public transport, and Crystal Doors has a no fly policy.

employee commuting

*

Yes

All on-site staff live within 3 miles of the factory, so employee commuting is a small contributor to our scope 3 emissions. Cycling facilities are in place for those choosing to cycle to work and we plan to survey staff annually to gather more concrete data on commuting methods.
