The activity generating the emissions is extrusion, co-extrusion of plastic sheets. The reference product is extrusion, co-extrusion. This is delivering the service of extrusion, co-extrusion. The process of co-extrusion includes two or more molten materials, combined in a die under pressure. Examples of co-extrusion include cable insulation and packaging films, where composite films with up to seven layers are used. The service of co-extrusion refers to an input of 1 kg of plastic pellets but the amount of plastic pellets processed is not included. Thus, it should be used along 1 kg of thermoplastic material (e.g. polyethylene (PE), polypropylene, acetal, acrylic, nylon, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polycarbonate).  The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation here for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.11/cutoff/dataset/12468/documentation.

Emission intensity of the supply chain per Canadian dollar spent on: basic organic chemicals. Retrieved from the OpenIO-Canada v2.9 model which is a Canadian Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) model. The emission factor is provided in purchaser price including taxes retail margins and distribution costs. Endogenization is included meaning the emission factor also accounts for capital goods.
