Carbon footprint represents the amount of greenhouse gas emissions, which measures the impact of human activities on global warming. Carbon footprint is measured using the equivalent carbon dioxide, or CO2, emission.

TÜV Rheinland Group’s Carbon Footprint Certification is an international carbon footprint certification. It places stringent standards on carbon emission of green products and regenerated raw materials, starting from the generation of raw materials, manufacturing, consumer use, to the end of product life cycle.

DA.AI’s regenerated chips and yarn have both received this certification. Thanks to the efforts of Tzu Chi recycling volunteers, the impurity rate of recycled PET is below 10 percent, which is much lower than the general 15 to 20 percent recycled PET impurity rate. This data demonstrates the purity of DA.AI’s regenerated raw materials. These regenerated raw materials not only reduce energy consumption, they also meet the international eco-regeneration standards.

Furthermore, Eco Blankets from DA.AI received the world’s first Carbon Footprint Certification given to blankets from TÜV Rheinland Group. The CO2 level emitted by a large Eco Blanket is 11 kg, and 7 kg for the small Eco Blanket. This great honor demonstrates international recognition of Taiwan’s green products.
