How Kieswerk Fischer attracts more clients with certified CO₂ data from ORIS

The context

________________

Standing out in a changing market

Kieswerk Fischer is an aggregate quarry in Tensfeld, Germany. To improve the transparency of its emissions, it wanted to calculate its products' specific carbon footprints.

Thanks to the ORIS carbon footprint declaration certification, the company established reliable indicators, particularly concerning the CSC (Concrete Sustainability Council) certification, which is becoming increasingly important for many companies.

This is why Kieswerk Fischer adopted ORIS CO2 Calculator for Aggregates

The challenge

________________

Relying on a practical and easy-to-use calculation tool to share CO2 data

The quarry needed a reliable, accurate solution with a solid calculation methodology backed by trusted databases like EcoInvent.

MIRO, Germany's Federal Association of the Mineral Resources Industry, recommended that Kieswerk Fischer use the ORIS CO₂ Calculator for Aggregates. Our industry-specific tool provides a certificate with an accurate calculation of their aggregates' carbon footprint. It’s easy to use even for those without experience with digital calculation tools.

Plus, ORIS CO2 Calculator for Aggregates is an officially recognised tool for CSC certification.

"ORIS CO₂ Calculator for Aggregates opened my eyes to factors I had never considered, like wear materials and consumables. Its structured approach helped me organise my data and see the full picture of our environmental impact."
