Emission factor summary
Emission intensity of the FR4 laminate used in an average multilayer ENIG printed circuit board. According to Precoplat, the underlying data are sourced from the 2018 study "Environmental Carbon Footprints: Industrial Case Studies" (ISBN: 978-0-12-812849-7). This value forms part of the raw material supply stage of the cradle-to-gate PCF calculated in accordance with ISO/TS 14067:2013 and published by Precoplat Präzisions-Leiterplatten-Technik GmbH in its Product Carbon Footprint factsheet, version 2.1. Data quality flag: Methodology - The source does not specify the IPCC AR version of GWPs used to calculate CO2e.
